Victorys shine in Portsmouth Sailing Club Frostbite Series

by Kim Taylor on 13 Nov 2008

Although the majority of Victorys are now ashore for the winter, several remain afloat and are taking part in the Portsmouth Sailing Club Frostbite Series with some success. A close fought battle in the first race saw three Victorys finish within 8 secs to take 2nd to 4th place on handicap.

The series runs until early December and anyone interested in sailing a Victory in this series (or next year) is welcome to contact Kim Taylor 07775510637 or
