Nick Brook in a Solo won the first and second races in the cold easterly wind at Hollingworth Lake Sailing Club on Sunday.
He had only beaten Evan Parry in a Laser by one second on handicap.
Parry sailed consistently in second place in all three races.
His father, Julian Parry, was setting the pace in a RS300 on the water but not fast enough to beat the youngsters.
Young Jacob Din, in a Topper, had a couple of third places, ahead of another young sailor in Jasper Bramwell, also in a Topper
Richard Marsh enjoyed two races with his daughter, Lauren, in a RS200, at times planning across the Lake in a gust, but not far enough ahead on handicap until his wife, Heather, took the crew spot in the last race to help him to a clear win.
