VLC Winter Challenge Postponed (GP6)

Only one race was started on saturday which was eventually abandoned when the wind died completely. The start saw Gareth and Warren going right and picking up the wind first . Tim Gibbons worked his way up the fleet passing Warren into 2nd but was still quite away from Gareth when the plug was pulled, just as Gareth drifted towards the Leeward mark.A good decision by the Race officer.

On Sunday the wind appeared much to late to allow enough time for the requisite number of races to be held. By concensus it was decided at a skippers meeting to postpone  until next weekend.Many skippers have a lot riding on their result in this regatta results and need to participate to secure final GP placings.

Lets go and support the regatta with the same numbers that turned up this weekend

 

Regards
