The 2022 Rooster sponsored Notts County Sailing Club Regatta was held on a July summer weekend rather than the normal May Bank Holiday, partially due to the Jubilee celebrations.
With over a hundred social tickets and over fifty six boats entered it was set to be a good weekend.
The Saturday racing was plagued by light winds, the first race started an hour late at 12pm, and at every mark it seemed the wind swung to create a beat, most got round within an hour. Jon and Nicola Willars took their Scorpion to first place in the fast fleet, followed by Chris Martin and John Tailby also in a Scorpion. Peter Gathergood won the juniors, whilst Richard Mason took the first slow fleet race a Laser, David and Luke Evans were second in a lovely wooden Firefly.
Sunday had slightly better conditions with a little more and steadier wind. Two races took place for the Commodore's Cup. Chris Martin and John Tailby winning both races and so were the overall winners of the Commodore's Cup (results taken from both fleets). Hyden Moore won the junior prize in an Aero.
Sunday's fast fleet saw James and Phillipa Logan's constancy pay off to come second in their RS400. The slow fleet saw Ian Firth win a race, but it was Tim Rush's constancy that paid off beating Stephanie Gunn to second place by two points in the slow fleet, to win this fleet.
The Novices saw Ted Antill win both races with. Janes & Simon Ling in a Topaz second and Viv Weston and Adrian Jones third in their Scorpion.
