Well done Mark. taking out the Leeman regatta with your old Maricat SS. Both Yardstick and scracht results. Looks like the new flat top sails on the windies take a bit of getting use to or maybe it's just the sailor. HAHA, Maybe it's the boat. Even a girl flogged a few of the guys. Well done Helon. good to see.

Well that is not really what I said but it was a great regatta. I did not win on yard stick a slooped rig windie won. it is rather interesting that they gave me a yardstick of 88 though given that I was sailing my 25 yearold boat with 5 year old sails. there is no way that they would have given a 25 year old windie with dacron sails that yardstick. I did manage to beat the new square tops 5 out of 8 races (soopersloop) frankly given I was the only supersloop to win a race on yardstick I think that they are not sailing them up to their potential yet. not withstanding any of the above it was a great place to sail and the new sails do look great on the boats.
