THE worst sailing weather for a long time made racing a day to be forgotten at Bolton Sailing Club. Rain and no wind gradually gave way to more rain and a fitful north westerly creeping up to he odd burst of force four.

One unusual feature was a dead heat in the last race between L Bird and G Courtney.
