Many congratulations to Sarah and Martin Wilkinson on the birth of their daughter Molly at 0529 today (29 November) who weighed in at 5lb 13oz. Hopefully they’ll remember that she’s wrapped in the spinnaker before it’s launched next season (Grand dad’s words not mine!).… Read full article “Congratulations”

As expected, the wind eased for the second day of the handicap open meeting. With an earlier than usual start the OD was able to run all three races.
The wind shifts may have been subtle, but they could be deadly and several places changed as a result.… Read full article “Well Done Team Bass!”
The wind was much lighter this weekend than we’ve all been used to (well apart from those that sail on Thursday evenings), and the rain managed to hold off until the end of the final race of a six race series.… Read full article “Weekend Results”
Another blustery, but dry, day for the final race of the Catapult open. The gusts did catch out one of the catapults which resulted in their first capsize of the weekend.

… The weather that is! The good weather’s resulted in another good turnout for Thursday evening racing, or is it just Pat’s after race food?
The weekend should start off well, but they reckon rain’s on its way
This weekend was a little quieter due to Andy Smith & Co venturing to Edinburgh for his stag night. Andy did take his passport with him, but he obviously didn’t realise that there is no passport control to cross the Scottish border (even the Welsh charge to cross the Severn bridge!).… Read full article “Weekend Update”
The first evening racing of the series got off to a busy start (with a fleet of 21 boats) although, as often occurs, the evening wind was a bit shy. In fact it kept coming and going. Ginge and Dave Nicholson got away from the start only to fall into a hole which let most of the fleet past them.… Read full article “Thursday Results”
Sunday started off wet and windy (and it didn’t get much better), although not as strong gusts as were encountered on Saturday. Accordingly, there weren’t many takers – Mike and William were there for some more, Hugh (or was it Rhonwen?)… Read full article “Ain’t Got Enough Swing!?”
A bit of balmy weather this weekend. Loads of sunshine, but the wind was somewhat lacking on Saturday. In the first race Shunty, with Tim Chittenden crewing, kept breaking away and then being caught again. On the final run before beating up to the finish Herb warned Steve to mind the anchor warp – Tim lifted the centreboard, but the warp caught on his rudder bringing him to a sudden stop, sufficient enough for William and Elaine to take the lead.… Read full article “Summer Come Early?”
