Finally the weather has turned up! Seems like it won’t belong before it’s time to get ready for the various Championships, is it me or does each week seem to be going faster and faster?
Well done to
Shane Mac Carthy and
Andy Thompson on winning the GP14 Inlands, they were using the new laminate GP mainsail with added foot window.
Mike Senior and
Liz Seniorwere also going well with four 1st places but unfortunately for them they fell foul to the black flag in the final two races leaving them finishing in sixth place. Mike and Liz were using the Dacron Mainsail with added foot window. This is the second year in row that HD Sails have won the GP14 Inland Championships.Adding to the winning streak Chloe Felton won the Optimist open meeting at Banbury SC with two firsts and a second, also using HD’s Josh Haynes finished third and Matthew Beck 4th.5 of the last 6 Merlin Open meetings have been won by HD Sails, congratulations to
