IOMMDWCS 17/18 Series Results

I need to appologies to John Humphries firstly as he appeared to have two entries in the series as we had him under jib 52 and jib 53, it also appears that there was a small error in John Smith’s results which have been amended, these has been sorted and a revised overall series result sheet (v2) posted to the results tab. Thanks to Steve Haywood for bringing this to my attention with a question that made me look again. Glad to see so many of you looking at the site today.

Congratulations go to Darin Ballington (MP) for his successful defence of the “Gibb Trophy”, his dominance in the series started by winning the opening round at Birmingham MBC and he never relinquished the lead. Looking at his sailing average (1.4) over the 39 counting heats, he was a full 2 points better than Mick Chamberlain (Linc) who finished a creditable second.

Darin wins the “Gibbs Trophy” which we will present to him at another MD IOM meeting. His name has been added to the Roll of Honour which is posted under the “About” tab. Will anyone challenge him next winter? After three wins in a row I doubt he will make it easy for any challenger.

Finally thank you to all the host clubs and their race teams for making this series a success by providing 39 MD skippers a chance to race their IOM’s over the winter.
