J24 Sept/Oct 2016

Apologies for my absence from these pages. Hopefully I have got the results correct although I am still checking on the race on Monday 19th Sept which took place whilst I was at the Southampton Boat Show.

A week later than originally planned 8 J24s took to the water to support Annie Lush's Magenta Project day. A good number of ladies, novices, and youngsters joined in on a day of light training, a club lunch, presentations from Annie and her support team of Olympic sailors, and a gentle afternoon race. The weather behaved very well giving us gentle breezes during both morning and afternoon, and only decided to misbehave, with a little rain, as we were all partaking of tea and homemade cakes chez Parkstone YC.

Great day and hopefully some inspired newcomers to the fleet for next season.

Good luck to the youngsters as they sail XP Rigging and Vinyl Solutions to train for the Boxing Day "Commodore's Cup"

See you soon,
William

Monday 12th September

Monday 12th September

A very pleasant evening, windward / leeward, race keeping close to the start / finish line in the diminishing light. This proved a good strategy as only two of the four rounds were sailed.

Whilst we, again, started well, Vinyl Solutions still viewed the fleet from the rear by the time the finishing line was crossed, but enthusiasm on board remained high and a little more experience was banked.

At the right end of the fleet Madeleine was pushed hard by Flying Colours whilst XP Rigging achieved an excellent third. Crackerjack, Wijit and Zaphod were split by fractions of a second, with Jobs for the Buoys and Easy Tiger completing the fleet.

Unfortunately, I have been unable to get the results from Monday 5th September as yet. Next Monday is the last of the series but I shall be at the Southampton Boat Show. So, see you all on Saturday 8th October for Annie Lush's Team Magenta coaching day.

Monday 29th August

It all felt a bit lonely out there as Jobs for the Buoys and Vinyl Solutions embarked on a two boat match race on Monday evening!

Unfortunately the course did not allow for a beat so, once ahead, Jobs for the Buoys didn't really have any competition, other than in sail handling around the various marks.

Nonetheless a lovely evening weather wise AND we came SECOND !! Best result of the year.
Well done Holly for helming so admirably.

William

Monday 22nd August 2016

As Vinyl Solutions was unable to sail I invited myself to sail aboard Crackerjack where I was witness to some expert helmsmanship from Dave Butter's son Jack. David Lush was press ganged into becoming Race Officer for the evening so the decision was made to only fly jibs, as Jobs for the Buoys could only have 4 crew. A course of 26 to Port, Bell Race Mark to starboard and then a windward/leeward using South Deep twice was set. However the fast ebbing tide caught out many boats notably Easy Tiger, who resorted to engine, and Jolly Roger whose time was severely effected.
Pheonix, starting at the box end got away quickly whilst Wijit was adjudged over the line and had to return. The huge tide at 26 meant extreme care had to be taken but, once round Pheonix had a clear run to finish whilst Madeleine, Flying Colours and Crackerjack battled for the remaining silverware. The race was ultimately shortened to Glovers with the following result:
1st Pheonix
2nd Madeleine
3rd Crackerjack
4th Flying Colours
5th Zaphod
6th Wijit
7th Jobs for the Buoys
8th Jolly Roger
DNF Easy Tiger

I have now noticed my mistake with regard to separating the Summer and Autumn Series !!
Congratulations to Roger Morris 1st, Duncan McCarthy 2nd and Andy Taylor 3rd for the Summer Series.

Monday 15th August

An absolutely perfect evening for a gentle sail around Poole harbour with a glorious sunset to finish.
A SE breeze and high tide allowed for the 7 competitors to utilise the width of the harbour from Brownsea to Salterns Marina to beat up to Bell race mark and then run back to Stakes race mark. With some of the fleet away at the European Championships in Plymouth there were fewer participants. We were pleased with our start at the pin end (others were not quite so pleased!) but despite a good scrub off prior to the race Vinyl Solutions' boat speed did not allow us to keep up. Wijit, despite starting slowly over hauled most of the fleet, whilst Crackerjack turn in another great performance to finish just behind Madeleine. Easy Tiger succumbed to a weedy under carriage and lack of spinnaker so departed early.
The European competitors scored average points.

Monday 8th August


Apologies for missing last week's results, but here is how it stands now.
A very interesting evening on Monday with a gusty and increasing NW breeze
but all boats stuck with genoas throughout. Crackerjack was OCS at the start but 
redeemed herself but couldn't get back into the leading pack. Andrew Hill's Wijit
and crew were super fast and no-one got anywhere near them after the first mark.
Flying Colours recovered from a slow start to bounce her way (literally) up to 2nd
place, using the slack tide in Wytch Channel to their advantage.
