Club IOM Scratch Trophy Race. 10 X 3 Laps
19 January, 2019, This was a NO Handicap event for our IOM Trophy, so today's winner gets the trophy.
Sunny weather, with some clouds, was a very pleasant 22-25 degrees (but felt warmer) with wind ranging from 0 to over 15 knot gusts SW-S, with many shifts and drifting conditions in first couple of races, strengthening to quite strong and gusting. Wind was forecast 14-18knots, but we were all sailing A rigs. Then the wind came in and it became a survival issue. A couple of boats had gear failures (sails and electrical) and Martin, who had been going so well, retired not feeling well after race 6. We got 6 races in then had a break to return to even stronger winds and Peter wisely changed down to B rig. Very much a day determined by wind shifts and survival of boats.
With only seven boats sailing in the IOM Trophy, we also had Allen with his DF95 and Bruce with his Budgie sailing. Strategy of the day was to handle the challenging conditions, sail clean, without lock-ups or errors. Penalties were hard to do in A rig and these winds!
