RS Open & RS Vareo Northern Championships

Competitors for the RYA NWJTT and Topper NW Area Championships were confounded, on arrival, to discover that the wind was blowing from exactly the opposite direction to that which was forecast. Shortly before the scheduled start time the SE breeze faded – and then gradually reappeared from the NW.… Read full article “NWJTT & NWTAC”
