Results / RS Vareo National Championships Weymouth & Portland NSA - 21/08/2011
Day 1
The fleet go out with high hopes on a lovely sunny afternoon but once at the start area it becomes apparent that the wind has dropped considerably.Pace 1 started with a port biased line which caused some OCS queries. The fleet was fairly evenly spread at the first mark with Andrew Wilson narrowly in the lead. The wind continued to die on the first run & then shifted 180 degrees & refilled from behind. The course was shortened with Wilson first, Mark Somerville in 2nd & Chris Moore 3rd.
There was a short delay before race two whilst the course was re set. As before gains on either side of the beat were evened out by the first mark. Wilson narrowly lead Richard Willows until the 2nd beat when Willows took some good shifts to pull through. The wind started to drop & the pursuing fleet closed the gap but Willows held on from Wilson with Somerville 3rd.
Racing was abandoned for the day when the wind completely died.
Day 2
The day started with rain & the wind performing gyrations in the harbour area. As the rain eased the wind settled & the fleet were released. The port biased line resulted in clean start . Good speed allowed Wilson & Willows to lead the way. Willows took the lead on the 2nd beat by taking a lift up the shore. As the wind increased Willows extended his lead downwind to win comfortably from Wilson & Ian Jubb ( Jubby )
The 2nd race of the day was almost a carbon copy of the first race but with Willows in front & Wilson overtaking on lap 2 with the inside shift & Geoff Shaw took 3rd.
Jubby was a contender for the Duckhams prize after a toestrap beakage took him from the front to the back of the fleet.
The wind freshened to a good force 3 for the next race. Wilson & Sommerville lead the fleet whilst Willows gained downwind to get back to 3rd. Sommerville fell out of his boat & let Willows through to 2nd. At the finish Mike Cowan missed the gate whilst disputing water/room, then capsized & finished whilst hanging onto the transom of his boat with the kite still flying !
Wilson's win ensured he would win the Championship, but Willows & Somerville were very evenly placed for 2nd & 3rd overall.
Race 9 After a small delay , race 9 started in increased wind. Willows spotted a port end bias & was able to back up a number of boats at the committee end to give himself a good gap. Nick Crickmore executed a clever port tack start to clear the fleet, Willows tacking shortly afterwards to find himself being lifted in increasing breeze to give a 100yd lead at the first mark , followed by Crickmore & Wilson. On the first run, Crickmore lost out by going shoreside, & Willows & Wilson were able stretch away over next two laps.Symons came in third ahead of a tight gaggle of Thomas, Jubby & Crickmore. Willows'
win ensured a comfortable 2nd place with two Grandmasters taking 1st & 2nd overall.
Many thanks to the Saling Academy for letting us come to such a great event, the race team led by Peter Aitkin who got us through our programme with efficiency & good humour & our calss secretaries Heather & Debbie who have worked tirelessly during the event to make sure it all happened smoothly, very many thanks.
