An easterly wind at the lake is usually strong enough to deter some sailors from setting out. However, on Sunday 26 March, the strength was reasonable and juniors in Toppers were prominent in the results.
Jasper Bramwell won all three races in his Topper. He had been at West Kirby on Saturday experiencing the thrill of crewing on a trapeze in a 420 dinghy, widening his skills.
Martin Brennan in his Solo, sailed consistently in runner up spot and was ahead of Stuart Bates who was trying out a Solo for the first time.
In the first race, Lauren Marsh sailed her Topper into 3rd place, ahead of her parents Richard and Heather Marsh in their RS400.
After a slow start, sailors are getting out again to enjoy a full lake.
