Day 1 started off bright and sunny with a nice breeze blowing in from the East. Report and results
After the daily briefing and a brief pause the fleet set off, with plenty of sun-cream and water, down towards East Head with spinnakers up making it quite a sight to see. The first race had a general recall, but was soon underway on a very true course with neither sider showing much bias. A leader was quickly established, as Tim Rush led the fleet round the rest of the course and went on to win the race with his crew, Ellie Rush. In second was Melissa Heppell and Amelie Hiscocks, and third went to Angus and Florence Hemmings.
The second race started off with another General recall, after which the Race committee decided to put up the Black Flag, which did its job and the fleet stayed back off the line. The race started fairly smoothly, but the infamous Itchenor tide had other ideas causing many, including Locals, to overstep the Windward mark. First place was strongly contested for by many with Melissa Heppell and Amelie Hiscocks coming out victorious, with David and Imogen Wade in second, and Angus and Florence in Third.
The third race was preceded by a long trek down to Hayling Island as the Winner bank was no longer a major threat! This time the fleet was set a windward, leeward course, with a leeward gate which created much excitement, and added to constant place changing as the race was fought out. After some great tactical decisions Bertie Fisher and Felix Kent went on to win the race with a clear lead leaving the rest of the fleet to battle it out for the minor positions. The next places were taken by Archie Grant and Maddie Hantrais, and David and Imogen Wade.
After a tiring day the combination of the tide and the unusual wind direction made it a very long sail home and everyone was very glad for the refreshments and shade available at Itchenor Sailing Club. All in all it was a great day of very competitive racing.
Bring on tomorrow! Don’t forget the sun-cream!
