Wednesday Series 3 29/09/2011

The final Wednesday night race was held on 28th September on a glorious Saptember evening with sixteen boats sailing with a golden

setting sun as the backdrop. Going into the final race anyone of three boats could win overall after the four previous races.

OOD Mike Pritchard

set a simple upwind/downwind course. First away at the start as Nick Marlow and John Shepherd who went on to lead on the water for all the four laps.

Kevin Milton in his Phantom and Andrea Murphy in her Laser battled for second place with Keith Brereton moving quickly through the fleet after

a poor start. Second place in the race meant Kevin Milton tied for first place overall with Mike Pritchard, whilst a first place was sufficient

for Nick Marlow to displace Keith Brereton for third overall. After five races the top four overall were covered by only 1.5 points.
