Shields@Noon in TrYC – November 25th

Things seems back to normal this week: 4 racers, in fact five but one was a novice that didn’t knew anything on the basics. After the races I called her for a few lessons, what’s boat ID, its importance and how to ID, same for race wind (WWC), what is a Nav aid, and a quick test with TrapNav. Once she is familiarized with these, I want to teach her on basic rulesSTB/Port; Lee/Windward; ROW.

First race a very close finish. Congrats Paul and Chris

Close finish, Paul X Chris (see the black hole? During all day Dunai East was this way to me, what prevented me to follow the racers in it)

During second race had a triple close finish, even Paul was among them when crashed. Congrats all, and sorry Paul for your bad luck.

  1. Uiuiuiiii, the BLACK HOLE!!! That’s spooky. Better take care that you don’t get sucked in and spend the rest of your life in a time warp. 😮
    Did it only occur to you or did the others have similar experiences? It’s hopefully not your graphics card fuxxing up. : Rest of your photos are of very good quality tho, so I guess and hope your gpu is ok.

  2. It is a personal thing. Racers could enter and sail through the sim. I just couldn’t follow them (I tried a half dozen times before the races, resulting in crashes in all tentatives)

    Yesterday things were still the same, as today :-/

    In minimap it also shows reddish to me:
