Conditions at the lake on Sunday 11 September were excellent for competitive racing, despite the low water level. There was a good turnout which included four GP14s, where less experienced sailors were matched with known good racers.
The closest competition was between two Phantom dinghies. Will Smith, in his father’s boat, showed the way round in races 1 and 3, taking a third place in race 2 to win the day. Nick Brook scored two runner up places in the first and second races, giving him third overall.
Second overall, on the day, was Jasper Bramwell in a colourful RS Feva, with its asymmetric spinnaker. He sailed to 3rd place in the first race with his brother Xavier, then had a first and second places with Myles Emmett-Newman.
Other noteworthy results included a fourth place in the first race for Tom Daniel and Ryan Richards in a Merlin Rocket. Fourth place in the second race went to Stuart Bates and Natasha Dourala in a GP14 and a third place in the final race of the day. Graham Knox and Kevin Parry (also GP14) had a fourth place in the final race too.
