The first weekend of the Henri-Lloyd Warsash Spring Championship completed six races for Group and seven for White Group.
Three windward/leeward, 2-lap courses followed by around the cans to finish closer to the Southampton Water were set on Saturday, with a windward/leeward and Solent course for Sunday.
In IRC 2 Tim Webb’s Swan 45 Luna currently leads with Chris Jones’ J111 Journeymaker 11 in second. In IRC 2 Jukebox, John Smart’s J109 leads with a consistent scoreline, currently discarding a second. And in IRC 3 Sam Laidlaw’s ¼ tonner BLT-Aguila leads with six firsts.
The White Group consisted of a very competitive group of SB20s. After the first weekend just one point separates Mark Gillett’s PB11 Twenty and Charles Whelan’s Reservoir Bod.
Henri-Lloyd and Warsash Sailing Club are looking forward to the Performance 30 and 40 classes event in conjunction with IRC Black Group next weekend 25/26 April.
