The Club Spring AM & PM Series were completed last Sunday (15th May 2016).
Over 40 different boats and sailors took the water during the series with some excellent racing and close finishes.

The overall results can be found in the menu above under “news”
Various courses were tried to make the best of a shifty North West F1-3 breeze.
Here are the results.

Thanks to the OOD’s and the lady in the Galley, and to Julia for help during PM 1.
Cheers Robin Jamieson RO.
