by Steve Popple 4 Apr 2014 10:46 BST January - March 2014

Sussex Yacht Club's popular Cooler Dinghy Series saw competitors battling stormy conditions each Sunday between January – March.

30 hardy sailors competed at Southwick Canal enjoying a superb racing event in often challenging conditions.

Phantom sailor Steve Popple won the Eastwell Trophy with Steve Southall & Andy Phillips 2nd & 3rd respectively in their Lasers.

Members rallied round to ensure competitors received excellent hospitality on & off the water. Many thanks to local Fleet Captain-John Pryke and his team.
