Winter Series Regatta 5 Results
Sliema Creek was the the venue for the fifth Regatta of the Winter Series. Buoys were laid to provide a standard Olympic course.
This venue attracts a lot of visitors - both tourists and locals alike - enjoying a stroll on the sunny Sunday morning, as it was. A lot of interest was shown in the boats and many people stopped to watch the racing and to take photos.
Wind conditions throughout the morning were variable, from quite strong and gusty to a light breeze.......Matthew (boat no 38) and Sandro (boat no 42) having started the regatta with No 2 rigs soon found that they were going nowhere very fast, so speedily changed to No 1 rigs for the third race.
Congratulations must go to Alan (boat no 07) who, for the first time in the Winter Series, earned an excellant first placing of the day. Albert (boat no 11) and Christian (boat no 21) made the second and third day placings. Special mention to Sandro (boat no 42) who acheived a third place in the 11th race - well done!
Once again very many thanks to all the willing volenteers who helped to set up for the event - your help is much appreciated.
