Good/bad competition

Win the prize of fame!
This picture was taken at the BSDRA southern regionals. With your dinghy sailor’s hat firmly on, carefully pick out the good and bad points of sailing that the picture portrays. Team racing conditions were sunny and quite breezy with the boats approaching the finish line in a close-fought final leg.
We want you to tell us the good points and poor points of dinghy handling that this instant in time reveals. Equally you might compare rig setups or sail settings. Your answers will be scrutinised by a panel of experienced sailors and the person submitting the most acceptable answers will be the winner. Your name and responses will be published in a future edition of CentreBoard.
Please send your list of observations, however minor, to the Editor, ideally electronically, but any form will do, or c/o Brenda in the office if preferred. If under 19 before 31 December 2004, please mention your age. No frivolous or anonymous entries please.
Describe the boats by colour and the sailors similarly, for example Helm Blue or Crew Yellow. For the purpose of this competition the sailors’ identities are not relevant.
Do it right now! Good luck. Ed.
