UPPER Tamar Lake Sailing Club races on Sunday March 28:

a.m: Equinox 4

With beautiful sunshine but very little wind and competition fishermen to be avoided, nine racers crossed the start line chasing the odd zephyrs of breeze. Ever the light wind specialist, Jane Anderson in her fully rigged Laser took off with Steve Axford and Roger Heasman giving chase.

Jane gradually eased away from the rest of the fleet with only Steve able to stay in contention. A battle for third developed between Liz Royal and Roger Heasman with Liz managing to pass Roger on the second lap only to be re-passed.

Owing to the lack of wind, the race was reduced from four laps to three. The end couldn't come soon enough for poor Toby Tobias . Having got into irons near the end of the race he came ashore complaining that a Helixor had blown him off course!

Result: 1st, Jane Anderson Laser; 2nd, Steve Axford Laser; 3rd, John Buckett Otter; 4th, Roger Heasman Laser; 5th, John Savage Solo; 6th, Derek Farnfield Wanderer; 7th, Liz Royal and Bob Sampson RS200; 8th, Katie Leveridge Laser Radial; 9th, Toby Tobias Bosun; 10th, Stephen Muller Topper.

p.m: Commodore 2

With the wind direction all over the place at the start, 15 boats crossed the line from all different angles.

Jane again finished first, with Steve second and John Buckett third on handicap. Toby found a new steely determination to outwit the helixors finishing a creditable fourth on handicap.
