The keeled hiking dinghy K1 class National Championships were held over the long weekend of 9 to 11 September 2022 at Royal Torbay Yacht Club.
Following the sad news that Queen Elizabeth II had died earlier at Balmoral Castle, racing for the first day was cancelled, and after the required authorities had agreed the Championship could proceed, racing started on the Saturday.
Four races were completed on the Saturday and three on the Sunday for the 22 competitors.
Simon Hawkes from Castle Cove SC won the 2022 K1 National Championship with a race to spare, taking five race wins to finish with 7 pts.
In second place was Chris Turner of Lyme Regis SC with 14 pts and third Paul Birbeck of Wimbleball SC with 24 pts.
The prize-giving was an opportunity to thank Royal Torbay YC and its staff for hosting the Championship which was generously supported by class builders Ovington Boats.
