Summer Dinghy Series Kicks Off

Published 19:25 on 11 Jun 2024

After a week dominated by fierce and cold west to northwest winds, we were fortunate to start our Summer Dinghy series on Sunday 9th June in somewhat more benign conditions.

The first couple of races were held in a brisk westerly but by race three the breeze was softening. Andy Carr sailing a club Laser picked up a couple of first places and a second with Keith Driver in an ILCA6 also scoring a first place.

Pavol Mraz and Finlay Taylor also placed well sailing Laser Radials. Special mention to Finlay who has only recently returned to dinghy sailing after a long gap and is getting to grips very well with the Laser Radial/ILCA6.

Thanks to the safety boat crew Jamie Calder and Lawrie Elliott
