When the Northern and Scottish skiff sailors descended on Dalgety Bay Sailing Club's fantastic new slipway. This was to be the season decider for the Scottish and Northern Skiff Series, based on the best 4 results from the season's 7 events, and the stand-alone Scottish Skiff National Championships.
Saturday sadly dawned foggy and breathless, but after formal racing was abandoned for the day, the weather cleared and a good group again managed to get out for some racing before darkness in 8-12knots.
Sunday was going to be a four or five race day in a breeze from 5ish to 15ish knots.
It was great for the Musto's to be joined by a number of 29ers and a very well sailed International 14 of Josh Kerr and Ali Kent from Largs, who with a 1,3 could have been right in the chocolates but had to also count an 11th to drop to 6th overall.
So, after the numbers were crunched one of the competitors summed it up nicely 'looks like Mikey won the drinking and the sailing'...
Thanks to all at Dalgety Bay for an excellent event once again.
