| Stefan and Tom (r)
... |
 |
| John (7351) and Kit
(r) fight over 5th as they near the finish
while Dave Platt
(7218) and Peter Kozak (300) give chase. ... |
 |
| Mark and Paul look
good as
they try to move into series second ahead of ... ... |
 |
| ... Alastair (10137)
who is
mounting a late charge to try and at least move past
Hans and John
(938) into 4th in race 6. ... |
 |
| Mark (7673) appears
to ... ... |
 |
| ... have second in
race 6
locked up unless ... ... |
 |
| ... Stefan and Tom
(600)
can sneak in from the far left. ... |
 |
| Stefan made it close
but
crossed 3rd behind Mark. ... |
 |
| A protest in the
making as
Alastair (10137) is unaware that rule 18 (buoy room)
applies even at ... ... |
 |
|
... a finish mark
and will
be DSQ for this contact with Hans who will take 4th.
(Al's note:
This protest was a pleasure to hear as both
Alastair and John
[representing W938 in the hearing] were entirely
agreed on what had
taken place - a first in my decades of hearing
protests - and
exemplified great sportsmanship. If a textbook
were to be written on
how the protesting parties should ideally conduct
themselves, John and
Alastair's conduct in this protest would be the
model of perfection!!
Thanks, gentlemen!!)

| Kit (1037) luffs up
to try
to move past 5th-place John de Boer by ... ... |
 |
| ... taking his wind. ... |
 |
| A good try but ... ... |
 |
| ... no cigar for Kit
and
David who were OCS in any case! ... |
 |
| A close finish
coming up
among (l to r) Ivan, Peter with Michael right
behind him, Mike
Codd and Geoff as they are about to pass the start
mark about 50 metres
upwind of the finish mark. ... |
 |
| Camera shake from
the
excitement here - sorry!! Meanwhile, Dave Platt coolly
and cleverly
stays low and out of the mess on the left on his way
to ... ... |
 |
| ... a fine ... ... |
 |
| ... 6th place
finish. ... |
 |
| Doug (1366) will -
successfully - try to pass Geoff to leeward. ... |
 |
| A spectator boat??!! ... |
 |
| Race 7 near the
finish: The
brothers Taylor (7673) mounted a late charge to ... ... |
 |
| ... pass Alastair
(10137)
right at the finish and confirm their series 2nd, and
dropped Alastair
into a tie for series 3rd with Stefan who will take a
5th in the finale
behind ... ... |

Boer. |
