Week 4 Northern Brass Monkey Series 2009

Fabulous racing conditions swelled the entries for West Riding SC's Northern Brass Monkey Series to 23, with more visitors adding spice to proceedings. 8 mph from the South gradually built during the 2 back-to-back races to give some exhilarating sailing as the day wore on. Upwind shifts favoured both the left and right sides on various occasions, allowing plenty of place changing in the body of the fleet.

Week 3 Northern Brass Monkey Series 2009

After last week's racing was blown off due to strong winds, a gale strewn Saturday night accompanied by a forecast of winds up to 29 mph kept many would-be sailors away from the 3^rd weekend of West Ring SC's Northern Brass Monkey. Those with the bottle to turn up were rewarded with some brilliant sailing conditions in bright sunshine with the overall wind strength short of that forecast, but with some big gusts coming through for added excitement.
