force 6-8 was saturdays forecast with more predicted for sunday. 35 sunfast 37s competed in four races over two days, we knew it was going to be rough when we started to heel on bare polls , the starts were chaotic and full on with everybody trying for poll position and trying to survive the conditions,
team Apollo lead the fleet and won the first race even after losing their steering and having to resort to the emergency tiller for the majority of the race, they used the broken steering as an excuse to limp back into port solent flat out with their kite up and would miss race 2. team windrush surprised everyone and finished just behind team blue jacket to take 3rd and 4th with team sand star in 6th place. great result for tbyc.
race two saw windrush whoop both blue jacket and sandstar to become overall leader from tbyc overnight.
Sundays weather was worse with force 8-9 forecast, Apollo again lead the fleet to take first position with windrush again whooping the other two for tbyc, race 4 was again won by Apollo making them overall winners of the weekend, for tbyc windrush was 2nd blue jacket 3rd and sand star 4th, the fleet results will be published later this week so we can see where we all came amongst the rest of the fleet.
A great weekend of extreme sailing was enjoyed by all and we will definitely be doing it again next year, so why not get a team together of your sailing mates and join us?
I cant wait to see the video taken by chas and martin.

It seems to have slipped eveyones attention that Allen Burrell has yet again won the UK Finn Masters.
It only came to light in a totally unrelated conversation in the dinghy park at the weekend, when he quietly mentioned he had collected another national tittle in his travels.
Congratulations Allen, and in future, please dont keep this sort of information to yourself.
Gordon Sanders.

A very well done to Howard Hawkes who in his sprint (yes I know) won the race on sunday, with no wind to start just rain and 44mph half way round it was a very exciting race, once again the sandhopper fleet out numbered all the other classes with Zues sailed by Rupert Snow taking first amongst the sandhoppers, this is ruperts first win of the season and im sure his improved performance was down to the training session we held in the morning thanks to Peter Thompson. Alex Farrell was the star of the day helming Apollo surviving multiple knockdowns and still managing second place. Chris Clark put in a very disappointing show in sandstorm with third position, but it is thanks to his tuition with Alex over the last two years that the pupil has started to beat his master, i’m sure as he gets older he will also be able to out drink you chris?
