Squads Report
It was as if it was Summer last Sunday, that saw 10 Optimist and 5 420's racing on the harbour. With a North Easterly of around 10knots it was perfect sailing conditions for the MHYC fleet. With a late start due to a lack of wind, Rupert Henry, Mark Rohr, Sally Green and Johnathon Rosenberg did a great job in getting 3 races away with out much fuss.
Otto Henry showed that he is a rising force with a 3 bullets in what was a tremendous display of sailing in shifty and light conditions. However he was pushed all the way by Jamie Rosenberg, Archie Cropley and Chelsea Connor.
A special mention to Natasha Nisbet and Tim White who have been working hard in the development squad and managed to finish all the races. Both of them are making great progress and we look forward to them moving up to the race squad in the near future.
In the 420s, Finn and Louie again lead the way with 3 bullets but it was Dana and Cathy who showed what can happen when you work hard. After missing the start by over a minute due to spinnaker problems, they managed to get all the way back into second spot and almost take the win from the boys. The whole fleet is getting better and better, with them all being within metres of each other at all times.
Thanks again to all the parents for runnning the racing.
