What a day, we achieved an incredible result with just over 70 boats on the water, with 32 double handers, making nearly 100 sailors taking part in a memorable occasion for everyone.
I'm delighted with the amazing sprit of club members and visitors, which so far we raised just shy of £500 and with many donating direct the actually figure is possible far higher.
Finally I have managed to sort out the online Race results sheet and we now await and see the provisional global results.
Once again big thanks must go to Pete Storey and Colin Staite who stayed remarkable calm throughout the whole day, Mick Quickfall for being our official Witness and was still out there rechecking the course length well after the presentation. Also thanks' to the rescue team headed by Dave Jones who managed to capture (along with others) some great visuals of the day.
This must go down as one our highlights of the year... may it long continue.
