Sailing Sunday January 24 2021

Sundays sailing was a handicap race day enjoyed by nine starters.

The 1st Scratch race for 2021 saw a good fleet of 11 skippers turn up for the 10 scheduled races. With the breeze direction in a perfect direction (east south east) for Manly harbour the pro set a two lap windward leeqard with a gate at the bottom.

Manly produced a fantastic day with Ideal Conditions, a nice N/E Sea Breeze about 8 to 10 Knots.

Conditions were looking good for sailing when we arrived at the Marina. A light but steady northerly at about 3 -4 knots and the tide low, but rising. As the morning developed, the breeze rose slightly in strength to provide some excellent sailing conditions.
