TBYC’s NIC BARNES wins 2015 HORNET National Championship
Hosted by BrixhamYC sailing in Torbay, with a 10 race championship over 4 days, saw a dry and sunny light wind and less event, in which Nic and his helm Rob Larke posted no less than 4 bullets, supported by 2 seconds. They took the title in an extremely competitive fleet where the top 10 boats included 6 previous Hornet national champions. Gary & Tracey also put in a valiant effort with some close racing running all through the fleet, but finished ‘also rans’, enjoying the company much more than the mainly non trapezing conditions. What a timely advert for the Hornet open meeting to be held at TBYC on 26/27 September 2015, for which a Hornet Association owned boat is currently available to be used, by prior arrangement, by any wanna have a go Horneteers. Congratulations Nic, and yet another TBYC National Champion to add to the TBYC honours board!
