Congratulations and well done to Rob Nelson and his new Britpop, winning the April Metre Monthly at Wattle Farm from Ian Vickers and Phil Pryde.
The day started very soft, with a swirling 2-3 knot breeze that would go right around the compass during a race, but then settled (thankfully) into a steady 5-6 knot Sou-Westerly down the pond for the afternoon.
With 24 boats turning up we decided to have 2 observers per race (getting Avg Pts), which put the starting fleet at 22 boats…the starts were chaotic, as was the first mark!
Video of a couple of races to come later in the week.
