It was a blustery sail for the Scoles Trophy, held at Overy Staithe SC on Tuesday 18 August. Race Officers Camilla Warner and Simon Wilson-Stephens set the fleet off from a start line on the sea wall for both races, and the fleet enjoyed planing conditions in the lagoon.

The first race saw Spike Turner (OK) romping home in first place, followed by Andrew Storer (Laser) and Rodney Tidd (OK) in 3rd place. The second race was won by Sophia Hodges, with Spike in 2nd place and Bernard Clark in 3rd.
