Conestoga's Bill McLaughlin in his Laser
...

Visiting from Fanshawe were Jeff and Vera Eames.
...

Mike Codd and Kirk Iredale (CAN90) follow Rick Goldt down the run.
...

Three Lasers are about to have an interesting rounding but things should be much quieter for Mike and Kirk.
...

Ken Nethercott keeps a close eye on his spinny as Al Nichols threads his way down a reach.
...

Jeff and Vera make the most of their little breeze.
...

Mike and Kirk approach the windward mark, as do ...
...

... Al Nichols (7380) and Dwight and Pat Aplevich who won the first three races.
...

Leo and Joanne go full speed ahead.
...

PRO, Dave Meijer (l) get set to blow the whistle and raise the flag - simultaneously, of course - as the ...
...

... fleet waits.
...

The Wayfarers start next, now that ...
...

... the Lasers have gone.
...

Leo and Joanna check out the start line.
...

Seriously patchy winds right after the W start, as Dwight (4606) lifts out underneath Mike (r).
...

Others are less fortunate in the wind department.
...

In CAN90, Kirk tries, with little success, to outweigh Mike and make Red Top heel to leeward.
Note the eased sails eased for light airs aboard the two leading boats.
...

Both Mike (CAN90) and Jeff (7220) are sailing close-hauled! Good old Conestoga winds!!
...

One of the Laser starts??
...

The Wayfarers wait around as the Laser countdown progresses.
