Fifty young RS Aero sailors came to Rutland SC for the UK Youth Championships, where Jonathan Bailey won the Aero 5 title and Tim Hire the Aero 7 title.
The RS Aero 5 fleet was the second biggest ever with 40 after last year’s Worlds. The smaller RS Aero 7 fleet was equally stacked with talent.
Next up for the British fleet is the RS Aero UK Nationals starting this week at East Lothian YC, Scotland followed by the journey south to Lake Garda in August for the RS Aero Europeans.
