Why don't they put the results online? Doesn't make me want to buy a Solo.

They’re on Facebook.
Maybe they are all having too much fun sailing and partying to care about outsiders at the moment.

What was the probability of the fleet completing another lap within the time limit?

Looks like issues at the 400's too.
All but 1 boat DNF. If its a inputting issue its a pretty big one to overlook before publishing as nobody can see their position without having to work out everyone's net points. https://www.halsail.com/Result/Public/54560

Was disappointing but cannot blame the race team, the leaders went to the leeward offset finish at the target time, but no S flag displayed, the rest of the fleet followed. The shame was that the results had they been allowed would have been a fair representation of the race, and later in the week we lost Thursday and Friday’s races due to the unique weather conditions of Mounts Bay in an Easterly.
I can also attest that the club and class are run by volunteers, so whilst the lack of published results in the usual places may be regrettable, they are also on holiday.

Any feedback on the M2 mast that is beginning to become popular?

A few were using the Superspar including Taxi, mast is apparently lighter and has better gust response than the D+. Though as one wag put it as we were held ashore “the Boatpark is knee deep in Bulls**t”. Probably more important to have been early out of the gate and bang a left …
