Exciting LT racing last Sunday in 10-18 knots gusty fluky west to north westers. Last week's racing was the opening "Short Course" race series for the season held at Mounts Bay Sailing Club. Three windward and return short races (not so short for some!) was scheduled with separate starts 3 minutes apart with the Sharpie and Foiling Moth classes.

The LT fleet was met with some savage gusts as well as some frustrating lulls however Julian Atkinson mastered the tricky conditions to claim his maiden LT winner's flag. Second was another new LT sailor Alastair Mckinnon followed in third by Greg Willmott

Unfortunately the rest of the fleet was disqualified for making the rookie error of failing to sign on.

Don't forget to sign on and wear an approved vest for all racing at MBSC

Racing is on next Sunday at 2pm at Mounts Bay Sailing Club, briefing at 1pm. Sunday looking like an easterly course at this stage, course details advised on the day
