Congratulations and thanks to all the organisers and course support boats. Yes it was light and quite tricky but I can't say that the guys infront of us were lucky, they consistently spotted the wind and sailed well to be in a position to be able to take the opportunities when they came.
A tough race but an excellent one. 10 out of 10 to Marconi.
Thanks and Regards

Yes, the whole course is amazing, shame the wind from Saturday didn't rub off on Sunday.

Those pictures of Simon are from my own camera, got bored so took a few, then we darted off back to the club. Rather cloudy so they don't look that great.

The official photographs are from Sally Hitt - http://www.themomentimages.com Sally does a CD for the MSC Cadet Week and they are excellent quality. If you saw the BIG red RIB on Sunday, you will probably be captured on her camera!
