Results / RS Fat Face Racing Circuit SCYC, Abersoch - 29/04/2006
The RS400 Fat Face Circuit combined with the RS200s to visit the
picturesque town of Abersoch in north Wales over the may bank holiday
weekend and were treated to sunshine, wind and waves. After a short
postponement, 25 boats went out to race in 12 knots over a proper
nationals size course, with 2 laps taking almost an hour! Chris
Gowers/June Riley and Paul Allen/Michael Allen made the early running but
by the first mark Nick Craig/Al Fry had taken the lead. Near the top of
the second beat the Allen�s played the shifting wind better than Craig/Fry
and took the lead that they held to the finish. Behind them, Tom
Halhead/Chris Bishop took several places on the last run to com in
third. Ronan Kenneally/Roger O�Gorman won the silver fleet.
With the wind and waves building, the second race started and Paul
Hilliar/Stu Jagger crossed the fleet to take an early lead, with the
Allen�s and Dave Exley/Nigel Hall in hot pursuit. Hilliar/Jagger rounded
first and extended the lead to win by a large margin, while the Allen�s
held off Gowers/Riley for second place, with Exley/Hall winning the silver
fleet.
In the third race, Hilliar/Jagger again crossed early to take the lead
and extended from the pack downwind but this time Craig/Fry put in
maximum effort to catch and overtake Hilliar/Jagger and take the win.
As it turned out, Hilliar/Jagger were one of a few OCS casualties so
they needn�t have bothered! Halhead/Bishop profited from the OCS to
take second and the consistent Allen�s came in third, with
Nick Holt/Derek Hill winning the silver fleet.
Sunday threatened to give the fleet enough wind to race but it never
quite got there so the consistent sailing of the Allen�s was rewarded
with the overall title. One point covered second to fourth, with
Craig/Fry edging out Halhead/Bishop and Gowers/Riley.
