2025 Spring Championship events for the RS200, RS400, RS700 and RS800 classes at Queen Mary SC.
It might have better been described as the “Winter” championships with a brisk Nor Easter in evidence for the whole weekend, but it was no ‘Beast from the East’, letting the competitors off lightly.
Wnd conditions were gusty and shifty which was challenging for all.
James Morson and Fiona Harrington SYC were the RS200 winners, Ollie Groves and Esther Parkhurst of Beaver SC the RS400 winners, Rob Higgins of Chew Valley Lake SC RS700 winner, and Tom Morris and Guy Fillmore of Hayling Island SC the RS800 winners.
