Junior Model Yacht Regatta

Another well attended Boxing Day event on Setley Pond near Lymington, the annual event for home constructed model yachts and multihulls with maximum length of 660 mm without stored power of any kind.

On a cold but sunny morning with a light NW wind which presented a few technical problems for both the Race Officer, Malcolm Lee and the competitors alike, with the wind not square to the course.

The racing was divided into two Classes, the Monohulls for the Setley Silver Cup and the Multihulls for the Seahorse Trophy. Only two monohulls and two multihulls managed to finish in the top three places more than once out of the four races completed for each class.

Overall Results:

Monohull – Seltey Cup
1st Jamie Jardine – Planet (Sail No. 3)
2nd Harry Woodington – Robber (Sail No. 8)

Multihull – Seahorse Trophy
1st Arabella Jardine – (Sail No. 22)
2nd Robbie Urwin – (Sail No. 26)
