What a Turn Out!

Monday 21st June saw the best dinghy turn out for a very long time. 16 started the race which was the largest fleet of the evening, even bigger than the Squib fleet! A fantastic mix of boats and helms made a great sight. The Merlin Rockets are now becoming the fastest growing fleet again in the club with our newest Merlin "Smart Tart" winning. Most of the cruisers and dinghies seemed to arrive back at the harbour at the same time, which led to some interesting manoeuvres as dinghies tacked up the harbour. Nick Frampton managed a capsize at the entrance in amongst the fishing lines off the pier which even got him a cheer from the fisherman. Always good to have a laugh at the end of a race.
