The first Triple Threat for March 2022 saw a beautiful Thursday afternoon with good sailing weather coming from the west. Today we had four Bandit 22 LTEs, three The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class, and four Bandit Ifs at the starting line. A 22 and a Star Class had crew on board.
We had two great races. It soon became clear that in the Star Class a skipper showed the other skippers how to win a competition. With the 22s and the IFs the races were exciting until the end.
There was one DNF (Did Not Finish) and no DSQs (Disqualified) through both races and it was another successful and sporty day in The North Sea.
