Rather a gloomy start to Mudeford Week, but very testing condions this weekend; shifty and variable on Saturday, breezy on Sunday. Max Holloway took all 4 races to win by a wide margin from Phil Sowden (both Laser full rig) with his son and first Junior Jim Sowden 3rd on a 4.7. Kristy Powell 4th (Radial) and Kate Grandfield 5th (4.7).
The Slow Fleet was much closer with Ken and Lynnette White (Enterprise) winning on countback from Ali and Terry Reeves (Laser 2000) and Matthew Hermus (Highcliffe SC, Topper) 3rd, Sue and Alec Batten (Miracle) 4th and Peter Nicholson and Val Stagg (Norfolk Urchin) 5th also equal on points.
