The May Bank Holiday Weekend saw 19 Solent Sunbeams on the water for the fleet's first major event of the year at Itchenor Sailing Club. The weekend is always one of the best-attended events in the Solent Sunbeam Class and this year the fleet enjoyed light winds.
The Chisholm weekend comprises four races on Chichester Harbour, competing for the Chisholm Weekend Trophy in honour of Sir Henry Chisholm. He was instrumental not only in growing the class at Itchenor in the 1960s and 1970s but also in restoring many boats and thus arguably rescuing the fleet from oblivion.
Overall Results:
1. V26 Danny - Roger Wickens & Tim Martell
2. V61 Betty - Peter Taylor & Robin Richardson
3. V41 Fleury - Joe & Cathy Burnie
