Poor Show by the RCYC .... hopefully they will will buckup their ideas.

...did Falmouth a few  years ago- had a great event, though some of the courses weren't the best. 

Chris - were the RCYC hosting the day's race ?

-if I remember,  each day there's a different host. so results will be posted in a different  club

OK, so there has only been one day so far, But this looks set to be the worst Falmouth week ever. The race program has been chopped to one race a day with all but one day being "bay" courses These tend to be big triangles with 3 mile legs. Todays race was around 27 miles and was a painfull 4 hours and we have one of the faster boats!

This used to be a good regatta, I last sailed here two years ago when there were days with 2 windward leewards and trapeizoid courses. We do this regatta in non-cork week years and will now look to go elsewhere in 2009. The current chain of thought is to head for Weymouth or Poole anyone know anything about these regattas?

ps
Evan the Royal Cornwall Yacht Club was shut tonight when we went to see the results.
