Summer Series AC15 Match Racing Final Day

Friday 20 July we completed the Summer Series AC15 Match Racing. It was re-scheduled (because of adverse weather) to 15 July- -last Sunday, and it was also decided that as Ron and Darrell were the 2 main contenders, it was NOT necessary for David or Ed to compete. It was re-scheduled to be run last Sunday (15 July) but, because both skippers had problems, Darrell had major sheeting problems and Ron had rudder problems, it was consequently decided to postpone the event further. We eventually succeeded in running the event Friday 20 July with conditions that were damp & misty, not cold, with a basically steady  light northerly.  Ron took an early lead with 2 flights which gave him 2 flights up his sleeve, and Darrell came back winning the next 3 flights. Ron took flight 6, which evened the score up. With this in mind we decided to run a ‘deciding’ flight which Ron took. It was very close all the way thru, slightest hesitation and you came second.
Congratulations to Ron, for winning the series.
