Dragon Force65 (DF65) Thursday Racing results for September

Over the past four weeks, sailing conditions on our Thursday afternoon race days have been mostly fine with light breezes. Week 2 was cancelled as there was no breeze on the water. About seven are turning up to try their luck. 

Our monthly medal winner, Roy, was presented with his medal at the Harmony Park barbecue, held adjacent to the canal where the racing takes place. This social event occurs on the first Thursday of the month. Congratulations Roy.

We sail on Thursday and Sunday afternoons at 1pm, Harmony Park on Melia Street, Bongaree. Turn at the McDonalds round-a-bout. Sunday is an open event, any class of boat. The afternoon is used to test boats, discuss tuning tips etc. Thursday is for DF65’s only, and races are conducted in accordance with accepted sailing rules. Scores are recorded and handicaps calculated.  

All visitors and prospective sailors are welcome. This is a very inexpensive hobby, but if you are interested, we have a loan yacht that can be used. 

Until next time, 

Barry RO
