A big thankyou to Adrian for all his work towards this regatta, (especially seeing as he still has a wife and newborn baby still in hospital) the turnout was a bit disappointing, but the compertition was great 3 maricat sloops and 1 windrush sloop 1 maricat super sloop a 430 2 maricat cat rigged and 2 paper tigers taking part on Saturday at least. The racing was close in a variety of winds and from a variety of directions. I did seem to remember Adrian posting this regatta notice on here late last year, but apparantly the mods removed all his posts as they felt he was spamming???? Once again thankyou Adrian, my daughter Sam and I had a great day.

Phil
