I was at Summer’s yesterday and there was 7 mossie’s on the water four local and three visitors. All had a great day’s sailing. Winds from 5 to 10 knots with Dolphins playing around the boats. The total fleet at a guess was about thirty boats including some internationals on Tornados.

Congratulation to Matt winning the Div 2 and I believe his first win on a Mossie. It was done in spectacular form. Jeremy lead the race from the start line with Peter and Tom in hot pursuit and close on their tail was James and then Matt. During the race James, Matt, Peter and Tom had their turn in all of the minor places 2nd, 3rd and 4th, but it was Matt that managed to get through Jeremy on the second last leg down wind reach and then hold him off on the square reach to the line for the win with a slender margin to Jeremy then Peter & Tom.
Summer’s is a great place to sail, we managed to miss all the buoys, just on one occasion after a crash jibe an boat length from the mark, dame tide. The sailing and social activities after the race was will worth the drive.

Talking to some of the Mossies sailor they put their apologies in for the nationals as Summers is holding a round of the Asia-Pacific Tornado’s at the same time as our Nationals. This meant they would have to leave their boats in the yard and man rescue and the like.
