What a great event.  My sailing was awful, but the club was very welcoming, excellent galley, decent course, fantastic scenery.  The weather forecast was completely and utterly wrong, but hey ho, the windy stuyff made for great spectating for those of us sensible enough to stay ahore for the first race.

Well dcone and thank you.
the same, but different...

Thanks Winging it - Glad you enjoyed it. That wind was viciously cold even for Yorkshire Dales - and only  3 or 4 forces above the forecast (who pays those people?).
 
Full results, a great video and photos are all available via the club website at www.yorkshiredales.sc
 
I'll post a few photos and the video on here when I get a chance.

Looks good, if only it had been 25 degrees then it would have been magic. That looks cold but fun. 
Everything I say is my opinion, honest

Excellent video, lots of different boats can almost recognise them now, enough to spot a strange looking single hander at 4.81, a bit of research showing it to be a reworked Supernova sailed by someone called Hartley I guess a relative of the Boat Builders?

Did I see yet another young Escrit moving up the rankings there in a Topper? Just what the world needs that, more Escrits cluttering up the start line.. Wink

Any male sailor at the Brass Monkey that takes home wet gear in a Ikea blue bag can you please check if you have the correct one.
Oliver Blackburn's bag was taken by mistake, this will have a Crewsaver bouyancy aid with Topper intermediate squad badge on the back.
Please contact me on 01484686118 thanks
