WOSC 8 Hour Race 2017
The WOSC annual 8 Hour Race took place on Sunday 27th September. For those members who have not competed in the race or not spectated, I will attempt to give you a flavour of what you have missed. Read about it here.
Les and Graham win!
14:56:17 on Sunday 25 May 2014 was the time at which Les and Graham finished the second race of the day. To the great surprise, nay amazement, of many it was in fact the winning time. After the RO had checked, rechecked and checked his calculations once again it was announced that Les and Graham were indeed the winners of the race. In fact the RO spent so much time performing his calculations that the last race was started late. Read about it here.
Alexander and the Handbrake
See Alexander's great starts and the magnificent Wayfarer Handbrake demonstrated by Les and Graham. Read about it here.
Shock! Horror! Wayfarer using tired old rags beats Albacore with brand new sails (made by dyslexic sailmaker) on the water
On Sunday Richard and Tom stormed round the lake proving that "Flat is Fast".
Unique homework resource
A correspondent has written to inform me that this humble website is proving to be an invaluable resource for school homework in numerous subjects.
Read more...Les and Graham unable to sail
Les and Graham were unable to sail on 30 September, which was a beautiful day.
Les was nursing a nasty face wound received at Stockport when he was bitten by an angry dog. Graham says there are a lot of dogs in Stockport.
Graham, on the other hand had problems with his plumbing. Les reckons it's Graham's age!
Check out latest pictures
Check out the latest pictures which include: OK Worlds in Denmark, WOSC 8 Hour Race and Sunday 29 July when Les and Graham flew the flag (and the Police turned up).
For future reference Les, as any vexillologist will tell you, the easy way to know if the Union Flag is the correct way up is to look for the fimbriation of the ordinaries. If the fimbriation is below the saltire in the upper hoist canton, then the flag is being flown correctly.

Here are a few pictures from the WOSC Firefly open meeting held on 29 - 30 September. Unfortunately these are only from the Sunday. Saturday was a much better day for photography and there were 4 more boats sailing.

The Hardwick Hardship is a 4 hour race held in October and frequently in pretty hairy conditions. This year the forecast was for light breezes and that is exactly what we got. The lack of wind and an uncertain direction proved to be a challenge for the Race Officer.
11 crews assembled on or near the starting line and commenced the first of many laps of the course. At the end of the race only 3 of the 11 remained. Finishing order was Byte (Guy), Lightning (Martin), National 12 (John).
Special mention must be made of Alexander who did very well not to embarrass himself in front of his new helm. He had to jump ship immediately after the finish, with a leap straight onto the jetty, and make a very undignified cross-legged waddle to the loo! Meanwhile Jon was left to sail the boat home and put it to bed.
