Sailing on New Year's Day

Yes it was bitterly cold! but with a nice fresh breeze a number of dinghy sailors did go out and race.
Three double manned dinghies crewed by members of the Youth Squad
The Challenger Trimaran sailed by young Daniel Rowlands, who with a brace on his leg was unable to sail his usual Topper and made good use of the club's disabled boat.
Matt Newlands and Gareth Rowlands in a boat from the Swallow boatyard and
Leo Carswell taking his father Ian out for a blast on their ISO trapeze dinghy.

The eventual winners were Jonathan Morris and Hanna Campbell in a club Pico

After the race all retired to the club for hot soup and post christmas fare
