Euromarine Insurance Ramsgate Week 2022 Day 1 saw the IRC and Cruiser classes undertake different coastal courses in warm, sunny, breezy, perfect sailing conditions.

The IRC classes were sent off on a 15-mile, offshore, circular course in 16-20 knots of breeze. After a perfect start, Assassin took line honours but corrected time shows a slightly different story:

Pos	Boat Name	Design	Skipper(s)	Club(s)
Class 1
1	Tontin	A35	Borghijs Rosyn	KLYC, KYCN
2	Stiletto	Corby 36	John Barrett & Paul Woodward	RTYC
3	Assassin	Pronavia 42	Peter Jackson	RTYC
Class 2
1	Zarafa	HOD 35	Brita Van Rossen	RBSC, Breskens
2	Foxy	X‑34	Mike & Jo Brand	RTYC
3	Cobra	FIRST 34.7	Matt Green & Paul Thomas

The cruisers tackled two courses which saw Classes 5 and 6 on a 14.1-mile sail to the Deal Dolphin mark before returning to Ramsgate around Sandwich Bay. Class 7 were sent in the same general direction but on a shorter course of 11.6 miles. The dozen boats in Class 5 sailed a keenly fought race and the results were as follows:
