Today saw the formal start to the 2013-14 racing season at Weymouth Yacht Club, in Manurewa, greater Auckland.
Four short races were held, with a wide variety of boats, in quite light, testing conditions, which improved throughout the day.
The first race was a short affair, and the three Lasers opened up a sizable lead on the rest of the fleet, however it was Angela in the Starling, finishing fourth on the water, who took the handicap honours.
Aaron, sailing with two year old daughter Cailey as crew, was third Laser for most of the race, but found some luck on the final beat, passing Rob and Pete as they sat in a windless hole.
Seven year old Ashley, sailing in a plastic Optimist dinghy, sailed the entire course on her own, with no outside help. This was quite an achievement, having only ever sailed on her own once before. New member Neil also deserves mention here, as it was also the first time he had ever raced in a sailing boat.
With Aaron, Cailey, and Ashley out for race two, the fleet was closer together, and this time Angela showed that a good start really helps, as she lead the Lasers for most of the first leg. In time, of course, the Lasers were able to catch and pass the starling, however it was Gina, sailing her Topper, that got the eventual win.
Race three was a very close fought affair, as Rob and Pete match raced around the course leading the fleet, whilst Gina in the Topper, and Angela in the Starling, sailed their own races, and once the handicaps were applied, there were just a few seconds between the top four boats. The two ladies also finished only seconds apart on the water, right behind the Lasers.
In the final race of the day, Neil had finally figured out the unique starting system, and the entire fleet got clean, fast starts, and kept very close together.
After the racing there was a sausage sizzle, and a few other members turned up to chat.
Special thanks go out to our volunteers, Murray, Roger, and Simon. Without you, today would not have been the success it was.
Full results now up on the club website, in the results section.

2013 Manukau Regatta
Today was the annual Manukau shield challenge, hosted this year by French Bay Yacht Club.
66 boats faced the starters flags, with visitors from Maraetai, Manukau, Panmure Lagoon, and Weymouth clubs, as well as twelve-foot skiffs from Auckland Sailing Club. Two races were sailed, each lasting just over an hour.
Maraetai also provided some extra safety cover, in the form of three RIB's.
The weather gods turned on yet another perfect day, with temperatures in the mid to high twenties, and wind ranging between 5 and 15 knots. The water was fairly flat, although once the tide started running out, the chop started to build.
The on-water action was really hot, with everyone having a good tussle with the boats around them.
I was busy with the Laser fleet, where we had 12 boats. Most were sailing with standard rigs, although a few opted for the radial rig.
The wind shifted part-way through the starting sequence of the first race, making the start line a bit biased to the left, although looking up the course showed what seemed to be a right hand shift. This resulted in most of the fleet starting on the left end, while me and a few others went out on the right.
There didn't seem to be a lot in it, as at the top mark I rounded as the first of the right-siders, in fifth place but right behind the leaders.
Don won this race quite easily in the end, setting the standard for the rest of the fleet.
Race two saw a much more orderly start, and Chantal picked it right, taking first around the top mark, with me in second. We then took off down the reach, heading in the wrong direction! This dropped us down the order a tiny bit, although both still in contention.
The final results showed PLSC sailors taking the top three places, with Don winning both races.
Looking forward...
The shield challenge seems to have lost its glory and prestige, with very few eligible clubs sending teams to compete in recent years. Ineligible clubs have been sending large numbers of boats, with Taikata sendng several boats to Weymouth last year, and PLSC sending good numbers today.
One must wonder, therefore, whether the shield should be re-defined, and such clubs allowed entry.

What's happening at Weymouth
Coming up at Weymouth Yacht Club this weekend we have the first of this seasons River Races on Saturday, followed by the first Harbour Race on Sunday.
The river course will see dinghy classes racing up the Pahurehure inlet towards the Papakura motorway, around a few channel markers, and finishing in front of the clubhouse.
Sunday's harbour course will start and finish in front of the clubhouse, and larger boats will head out into the main harbour, tackling semi-open water, and rounding the Wiri LPG terminal. Depending on the weather, the course could stretch as far as the airport or further.
Both courses will be set according to conditions, and while we will have full safety cover on Saturday, boats participating on Sunday will need to be self-sufficient, as conditions out in the main harbour can be quite hazardous. For this reason, Saturday is being promoted as a dinghy event, and Sunday as a trailer yacht event.
Trailer yachts can race on Saturday if desired, and large dinghies can race Sunday, subject to a safety inspection.
Both days events count towards their respective series points, and club handicaps will be applied afterwards to determine results.
Come along and join in on the day that best suits your needs.

Heavy weather fun
Sunday saw a good strong breeze, puffing up to around 30 knots, with calmer bits of around 20 knots in between.
Three keen Laser sailors decided to give it a go, and had an absolute blast.
Rob and Pete both decided to reduce sail, and reefed their boats, while Aaron opted for full rig.
After a few minutes, Aaron started to wonder if he had made the wrong decision, after capsizing in a gybe during one of the calmer patches.
Pete discovered that some of the lines on his previously untested boat were not quite right, and also had a few swims.
As the day wore on, all three attempted several gybes, mostly successfully. All three showed signs of rust, and improved markedly during the day.
After an hour or two of ripping around, Pete got a little too close to the lee shore, and with those lines stretching uncontrollably, found it difficult to get sailing upwind off the shore, so decided to wait for a tow back to the clubhouse.
On one occasion, Rob and Aaron lined up for a bit of a drag race. Upwind in the 25-30 knots, there was very little difference in the speed of the full versus reefed sail, at least in the steep chop and over the short distance they had. Turning downwind, however, was a very different story, as the power of the full rig came into play, and speeds were poles apart.
Big thanks to Simon and Murray for manning the rescue boat - we probably wouldn't have gone out without you!
Coming up next we have the first of our River Races on Saturday 17th November, followed by our first Harbour Race on the Sunday.
The River Race is open to all boats, and will go towards the motorway at Papakura, while the Harbour Race is limited to bigger boats, sunburst or larger, for safety reasons as we will be leaving the sheltered area of the estuary and hitting the exposed waters of the main harbour. The course should include the LPG terminal as a rounding mark.

MANUKAU REGATTA TOMORROW!
Everything is set, the supplies are in, the guys are ready, the competitors are rearing to go...
The sprint series is set for 9:30 tomorrow, thats Saturday!
Four races, leading to a reverse-start final race. Winner takes all, for a cash prize. Or maybe we'll split it with second and third.
Should be serious fun!
The manukau regatta proper is Sunday, also 0930.
Standard, two long races, set in the awesome sailing waters of the Manukau Harbour.
The harbour is well known for its dangerous waves, and strong winds, when the shallow water gets upset, and waves break with savage force. The harbour is roughly 20 niles across, and circular, yet only around 6 feet deep, and often dries out on very low tides.
Tomorrow is a very big tide, and the forecast is for a beautiful hot sunny day, and 15 knot winds blowing straight up the estuary, so perfect conditions for our short-course races.
Kim Admore, direct from Yachting NZ, is lending us a hand.
Anyone reading this around Auckland, get your "boat" into gear and get down here!

Laser Nationals
Good luck to the four sailors from PLSC heading to Wellington for the 2012 NZ Laser National Championships.
New Zealand has always had some of the world's top Laser sailors at the Nationals, and I know that some of the PLSC guys are getting pretty close too.
Do the small clubs proud guys!
I'm hoping for some updates here as the series goes on.

Trademe fever strikes again.
Yep, you guessed it... Just put a $2 bid on a boat, and now I own it! Doh!
It's a Moth of unknown origin, looks like a scow, so either kiwi moth, or an old international, although it's impossible to tell from the picture, which only shows the deck from the mast step looking aft.
Claims to be fully rigged, and largely rebuilt requiring just a sand and paint. We'll see.
Oh well, should be fun for blasting about on those days when I don't want to break my Laser.
Speaking of which, I spent a lot of yesterday afternoon re-rigging said laser, so I can get some on-water practise before the RSA in February. I've been doing the fitness training and nutrition for the last few weeks, and before the silly season kicked in, had dropped around 4kg. Aiming to be around 95kg by the end of Feb, and hoping for a windy day!

Todays sailing at Weymouth
Awesome sunny but calm weather and flat water gave a fantastic start to our sailing season.
Sailing a basic windward-leeward course, Gina in the Topper lead Murray in the Sunburst and Rob in the Laser at the end of the first near-drifting downwind leg. On the beat back to the finish, the Laser streaked past, opening up a sizable lead. Gina then hit the reef out in front of the clubhouse, allowing Murray to gain the advantage, which he held to the finish.
Simon ran the rescue boat, which was a very restful experience in the conditions.
Everyone really enjoyed themselves, and we are all looking forward to next weekend.
Come on down and join in the fun any weekend through the Summer, lessons and training take place on Saturdays - our boats or yours. Casual mixed fleet racing or cruising happens every Sunday. The website and this blog are frequently updated, keeping you informed of what's on.

11:30 Start.
Mixed fleet racing at PSC, Farm Cove Pakuranga - Winter series 11 and 12.

What happened today.....
Big wind, big waves, and, you guessed it, NO SAILING!!
Todays MYMBC trailer yacht racing was cancelled due to 40+ knot winds.
So, in conditions deemed foolhardy and dangerous in big-ish boats, I was itching to go out sailing. so I did.
I dragged my laser out from the back yard, and went out for a blast with a cut-down sail on, which meant that I shouldn't suffer any damage.
While rigging, a savage squall came through, and I almost changed my mind, but then the sun shone through, and with 30-something knots I launched.
Awesome sailing, just blasting back and forth, jumping waves.
Then the breeze died away to around 15, and it was time to come in.
Still Buzzing, it's been a while!

The Windfinder forecast says it will be fine, warm (16 degrees!) and have fresh 15-25 knot winds. Sounds like sailing heaven!!

Manukau Travellers series
i'm willing to plan, advertise, and market a five or six event series based around the Manukau sailing clubs.
Each event could be two races, and be held on a normal sailing day, with minimal burden on club resourses.
This could be made into an attractive marketable package, which could then be sold to potential sponsors.
