Thorpe Bays YC, Kyle Stoneham is currently enjoying the sun in Bermuda, whilst he races in the International Moth Regatta that is taking place.
Even though racing was cancelled for a day due to strong winds, some of the competitors went sailing in Hamilton Harbour, so they decided to run some speed trials, with Kyle completing the one minute course in top slot. Well done Kyle.

John Charles of Leigh-on-Sea Sailing Club has been kind enough to contact me and point out that their Brass Monkey race will take place on Sunday December 18th, 2 – 4pm. This is a correction to the 27th December, which may have been published in some of our sailing programmes.
TBYC have a proud history of attending this event and taking away their brassware. Indeed I believe it’s Darren Fitchew’s turn to polish the monkey and return it in time for this event. Sailing instructions and the entry form are available via the links below: –
