Gul B14 National Championship at Paignton Sailing Club - Day 2

No breeze (but plenty of sunshine) stopped play today. An attempt was made to get a race in but that was abandoned as the leaders approached the final windward mark. How happy you were about this depended very much on your position at the time...

Echols was an action for damages based upon an assault on an employee by the manager of the corporate defendant.  There it was held that the injuries plaintiff sustained were clearly the result of an accident within the terms of the Workmen's Compensation Act and being so, his remedy against the employer is exclusively within the jurisdiction of the State Board of Workmen's Compensation and not in the Superior Court of Chattooga County.
