Weymouth and Portland were well represented at the 40th Bloody Mary Pursuit hosted by Queen Mary SC. Wsc members Sam Pascoe and Alex Knight finished a superb 9th overall out of a total 339 entries, in their International 14. New Wsc member Sam Barker teamed up with Megan Pascoe on the Merlin Rocket to finish an excellent 135th. Recent winner of Cadet of the Year Emma Stevenson came 163rd on her debut in the event, an amazing effort. For more information on the Bloody Mary http://www.queenmary.org.uk/bloody-mary.aspx
This is the first event of the year for our dinghy sailors in our clubs centenary year. 2013 should prove to be a busy year for our sailors with several events run here in Weymouth but also events run all over the world including Laser Nationals, OK Nationals, Europeans and Worlds, I14 Worlds, Merlin Rocket Nationals and Salcombe Week, Solo Nationals, Osprey Nationals, Topper events and all the open meetings and qualifiers in between too. We wish them all the best in the year ahead.
