Isle of Man - Copiers Lockdown 3.0 Regatta, 15th May 
Congratulations to Teddy Dunn on his win in the breezy IOM Copiers Regatta with the RS Aeros filling out the top 6. The Isle of Man's exposed location out in the middle of the Irish Sea can see feisty seas running whenever the breeze is up!
Interestingly, similar to our 65 boat Lymington Open, they had 3 races and NO discard which worked in favour of Teddy's consistency this time. It is my view that for 3 races on a 1 day event to throw a third of the days racing away with a discard is simply too wasteful. The RS Aeros reliability and simplicity dramatically reduces the need for discards due to equipment, leaving any risk more subject to sailor's race strategies which they then need to temper accordingly.
