The winds in the Severn Valley for the Trimpley SC GP14 Open meeting as part of the Midland Bell series on the 5th June 2005 were particularly fickle and created some frustrating moments for the 3 visitors and 8 home club sailors alike.
Carl Jeffs with Crew Jim Toothill sailing on his home waters won in convincing style even using an old borrowed boat showing you can't blame the wind for everything. Phil Quarry (Trimpley) with Dave Just as crew sailed to consistent 2nd place in each race, but John Solomon ( South Staffs SC) crewed by Trimpley Laser Captain, John Cookson stole second place overall with a win in the third race.

1st Carl Jeffs & Jim Toothill, 13793 (Trimpley)
