West Lancs Report & Overall Scores

Always a great venue, this time with a UK, if not world first for DF fleet racing. Lots of breeze, plenty of hot tea and one or two beers. Read the story of a weekend in the North by clicking here.
West Lancs DF95 Results
No surprises we got to use the D rig on the DF95 for a whole afternoon today. Turns out it’s quite good fun!
Results below, report will follow early week.

West Lancs 65 Results
So we stayed dry, there was wind but not too much and we didn’t get to eight races. Well done to all that came and got involved.
Results below.

Big coats and small rigs required
TT’s 1 & 2 are almost upon us and perhaps it is a good idea if we offer some advice to the skippers. The breeze looks like it will be up on both days so you will need something other than your A plus rig for Saturday and something other than your A rig for Sunday. I’m sure you’ve all spent the first half of this month diligently checking all your rigs, however I’d suggest double checking the smaller ones again and making sure your knots are really tight!
For the Southern skippers remember to bring thermal underwear and your big coat, possibly gloves and a woolly hat.
Forecasts currently suggesting mid to high 20 mph on Saturday and something biblical on Sunday.
