Solstice Race
Written by Russell Peace
29th June 2009

Sun, Sea, and 6-10 knots of wind was the call of the day for the annual bash around the Eastern Solent cans.

The race was contested by 5 boats with some close battles taking place through out the fleet and in particular between Channel Ghost and Temeraire. 

Some interesting sail configurations were also displayed, particular note going to Temeraire who at one stage decided to drop all their white sails and sail with spinaker alone.

Final victory on corrected time went to Merlin followed in second place by Temeraire who finished just 20 seconds ahead of Channel Ghost on corrected time.

23rd June 2009

This Saturday, 27th June, sees the LADIES RACE in dinghies.

Whether you are already a dinghy-sailing lady at the club or not, we would like to encourage you to take part. There are plenty of club boats available for booking in the usual manner using the bookings sheet in the foyer. The club Enterprises are newly refurbished with lovely new sails and are all rigged and ready to go.

The start is at 1500 off the club line, which will precede the Saturday Dinghy Series racing at 1700, so there really is no excuse to not be there.

We look forward to seeing you there.
