7th March - NMYC held its Second
Open Event, the Whitlingham Trophy.
This year we had much better conditions than last year, with a good breeze all
day. OoD Duncan Ellis took advantage
of the steady easterly breeze to set the classic triangle and sausage course, so
providing three good beats to windward in each race. Some small adjustments to
the starting line and the windward mark were made over the first few races as
the wind veered slightly.
A single fleet of twelve boats competed with close racing at the top of the
field. The end of the event found Denis Astbury and Graham Bantock tied for
first place with Denis winning the tie-break with his eight 1st
places to Graham’s six.

6th March
Eight members entered the fourth event in the IOM series. The weed problems
would appear now to be behind us which, combined with a brisk ENE breeze, gave
good racing conditions, with most boats changing down to the No.2 suit by the
end of the event.

27th February
11 members (including new member Peter Rawlings) entered the third event in
the IOM series. There were no significant weed problems but racing conditions
were tricky in the WSW light airs. Six heats were held before a heavy rain
shower brought an end to proceedings.

the effects of weed, particularly near course marker buoys.

13th February
Despite a very cold NNE breeze right in their faces, 10 members and one
guest put boats on the water. A rain/sleet squall precipitated an early
coffee break, whereupon conditions improved until the seventh heat which ended
in worsening rain that brought the proceedings to a close. As only seven heats
were recorded skippers could benefit from just one discard.

6th February
The third scheduled RM event was cancelled because the overnight return of
cold weather had left large areas of the Broad covered in ice. Even if there had
been no ice the still air would have proven very frustrating.
30th January
The third scheduled IOM event got the IOM side of the series under way.
Six hardy skippers and as many member spectators braved a very cold brisk
westerly wind that provided excellent racing conditions only marred by
significant amounts of weed.

weed problems.

16th January
The second scheduled IOM event was cancelled, despite the onset of a thaw,
because of ice floes and large rafts of floating weed debris.
9th January
The first scheduled RM event was
cancelled because the Broad remained iced over.
2nd January
Unfortunately significant icing caused the first IOM
event of the series to be cancelled.
2009 3rd
series
19th December
should have seen the final IOM event in the 2009 3rd series but large rafts
of dying weed made it impossible to hold the event. So the 2009 IOM 3rd series
was decided on the 28th November by the best three scores out of four events.

12th December
would have seen only the second RM event in the 2009 3rd series but
serious weeding made it impossible to to hold the event, so the results for the
28th November decide the series

5th December
2008. The
fourth IOM event in the 2009 3rd series was held in a light south westerly breeze, with part of the
course in wind shadow, so all boats were in the No. 1 suit. Weed
played a
significant part in the results, the first race (set over a full 'triangle and
sausage course) seeing only five of the ten competing boats finishing. The
rescue boat surveyed the course, pointing out areas of infestation, so
subsequent races were held over a straight windward-leeward course to avoid the
weed. Most boats were still affected by some weeding.

28th November
2009. The first RM event in the 2009 3rd series was at last held in a brisk
westerly breeze. Weed is now almost playing no part in marring races.

It was agreed by all who participated in this event that both the results
of the 28-11-09 event and the 12-12-09 event would count to decide the outcome
of the series.
