A poor forecast and the end of the school holidays resulted in a lack of competitors this weekend.
On Saturday five trainees had the opportunity to race without being impeded by club members. They sailed well in the strengthening winds, and there were no capsizes. Fortunately the rain that was approaching from Keswick direction held off until all the crews were ashore!
The forecast for Sunday was windier and gustier than Saturday, but it didn’t come to fruition in our micro climate. Unfortunately there was only one boat ready and willing to sail, so racing was cancelled.
Don’t forget about the Baton of Hope being hosted at the club next Sunday 7th September. Plenty of help required to cope with the 100+ visitors that have booked in
Congratulations to Phil and Lucy Smith who were 6th overall at Mirror Nationals at Netley sailing club . Massive congratulations to a fantastic 22nd overall for Oliver Smith crewed by mum Naomi in a top class fleet of 53 boats entered.
