Results / Fat Face Racing Circuit Bristol Corinthain YC - 25/03/2006
RS200 Fat Face Circuit off to a huge start at Bristol Corinthian YC - 61
boats
The winter cobwebs were well and truly washed away at Bristol Corinthian
YC when an awesome fleet of 61 RS200�s took part in the first Fat Face
Racing Circuit of the year. The drawing power of 200�s and BCYC was again
demonstrated by the fact that this was the second largest ever RS200
Racing Circuit event including a competitor travelling all the way from
Lerwick in the Shetland Isles; the 24 hours journey proved very
worthwhile.
The weather had markedly improved over the chill of recent weeks with 10-
13 degrees and a variable southeasterly breeze that moved around and
averaged around a force 3-4. We could have done without the general damp,
slate grey conditions but it was such an improvement on the rubbish
conditions we have suffered during 2006 so far. With such a large quality
fleet and shifty conditions recording any sort of consistent set of
results whilst keeping off the OCS blackboard was both going to be very
hard and vital as was to be proved.
Race 1 on Saturday started with surprising ease with the fleet well
spread out along a good start line set by PRO Rhys Lankester. Roger
Gilbert/Jane Willan led but one of BCYC�s finest Pete Vincent/Tessa
Nicholls jumped from 5th to first on the first run. They then pulled out
a comfortable lead; much to the shock of the race team who knew they were
never going to hear the end of it and were not seriously challenged.
Gilbert/Willian won the tight tussle for second at the final mark from
Jon Greenland/ Pippa Williams and Jon Lewis/Katie Nicholl. Colin Staite
and BCYC�s Liz Teague looked to have race 2 in control but lost out very
late on to Lewis/Nicholl with Greenland/Williams third and the Hewitsons
fourth. David Giles/Kita Carpenter really found forward gear for an
emphatic race 3 win from Gilbert/Willan and Sarah Allen with unusual
sight of Geoff Carveth crewing. Greenland/Williams fourth gave the very
consistent duo overnight lead.
The club then did something silly, rum and coke at �3 a jug!! The fleet
proved they had no self-control and they had taken full advantage because
through the hangover haze they had no idea where the start line was on
Sunday. The OCS black board was very full by the time the fleet started
for race 4. Micky Wright/Howie Enkal had though been on a Jack Daniels
diet and knew where the line was plus the big left shift to lead. Andy
and Jill Peters then led to loose out on a dodgy gybe to Vincent/Nicholls
who disappeared in a cloud of spray as the wind picked up. Just as the
race committee faced the horror of a second race win Vincent/Nicholls won
the duckhams for the weekend capsizing in the lead. The long distance
travellers Georgie Hill from Middlesborough and Roger Tait from Lerwick
ignored the mayhem to win from the Peters with BCYC�s Sarah Taylor/ Lucy
Matthews and Nick Charles/Juliet Kingsnorth third and fourth.
Will Story /Kate Havill marked a good event by leading race 5 but lost
out to Giles/Carpenter with Charles/Kingsnorth third and Paul/Caroline
Fisk fourth. Giles/Carpenter had a slim lead with discard going into the
final race but had an OCS and it was game on for overall victory with
several in contention. Giles/Carpenter fully settled the argument though
by getting a fine pin end start to lead at the first mark. Although
Charles/Kingsnorth got close Giles/Carpenters third race win was more
than good enough to win overall.
Storey/Havill won the silver division from Andi Riley/Julie Marsden and
Mark/Sally Harrison. Georgie Hill/Roger Tait won the bronze division from
Simon Howell/ Richard Murphy and Charlie Muir/Jane Sands. It was such an
action packed event there is no room to mention crews jumping out the
boat because their helm asked them to take the kite down, how much
Wembley girls enjoyed the rum, Jon Lewis missing the last race on
Saturday because he had a hot date and Ian Packard�s taste in boxer
shorts. If it carries on like this it�s going to be quite a year.
