Is this weekend - but it's all a bit quiet.

Like some other things - sailing is more enjoyable when you do it with someone else

Hard to see beyond B14 or Merlin, but fingers crossed for the Firefly reps.
No invite for the Minisail, again... |

My money's on Ben Saxton & Toby Lewis, past 200 champs, with Nick Criag & Tom Pygall snapping at their heels. Shame James Peters can't make it as that would have made it a much harder call.

Yes my money would be on Ben Saxton and Toby Lewis after his recent Nacra 17 Euro Champs success.

So many classes not sending representation. Such a shame.

I will watch with interest as I have friends competing. But the event is a shadow of its former self. RS200 is the wrong choice of boat and so many classes not invited.
Perhaps its time for a real champion of champions event? But I just don't think the industry has the money, will or ability to pull it off any more. Besides whatever boat was chosen would be a compromise for someone.

200s and 400s in alternate years?
Maybe Sailjuice series draws from the same pool? Maybe Burnham is not the epicentre that it was in the 70s?

Happily living in the past
