2014 SW District Championship Round 1 – Woodspring
Sunday 30th March saw the start of SW District Championship series hosted by Woodspring MSC in Portishead. A good turnout with 21 participants from West Cornwall, Bideford, Sedgemoor, Yeovil, Dartmoor, Woodspring and especially good to see skippers from Swansea joining us. Also, a special welcome to Tony Edwards (Yeovil) who has recently moved into our District.
In all, a pleasant day weather wise at Portishead, with moderate top suit conditions out of the NE in the morning, before swinging into the SE in the afternoon as forecast, less favourable for course laying. Good competitive sailing, but in the end it was difficult to match the experience of Tony Edwards sailing his BritPop, finally taking the David Trippe Trophy for his efforts.
Many thanks to Alan Chidgey, our Race Officer on the day, for keeping everyone in check.
