Calm sailing weather and a nice spectator turnout features during this weeks Backwater Bay Yacht Club IF Star 25R Regatta. The Bingo Strait regions returned to their characteristic calm behavior as the two DNFs (Did Not Finish) on the day were due to a boat collision at the start line. The regatta continues to draw spectators as crowds again gathered on the committee boat dock in the Woodfall region and the spectator area in the Twice Bitten region. This weeks fleet was comprised of a majority of six The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class. Two Bandit 25Rs made up the remainder of the fleet.

As a note, five sailors were disqualified (DSQ) from the first race for failing to round the green buoy in the Farragut region, which is a course mark listed on the course map and in the USB navigation card. We would like to remind everyone to get to the races early, giving yourselves time to familiarize yourself with the days courses and plan your racing lines.
