Glencoe Regatta

Filed under: Sailing — admin @ 8:59 pm

First sailing post (of what you might expect to be many once I get Fly back in the water) for my blog, but yesterday I was Race Officer for the Glencoe Regatta. The morning started unpromisingly with obstinate flat calm and rain forecast, and it took some juggling of the schedule (postponement of the morning race, early lunch and a proposal to run back-to-back afternoon races if the breeze kicked in) to give the day a fair chance. But luckily we got some reasonably consistent breeze in the end, the sun even chose to brighten up the second race, and everyone seems to have gone home happy after getting what they came for when it really looked for some time like they might get nothing. So I guess we ‘got a result’! :-)

Also took 200 photos which I hope to upload to the site ASAP.
