The 420 GP6 at Warsash Sailing Club was a fantastic event. Light winds and a scenic backdrop greeted the 30 boats as they arrived at Warsash Sailing Club for the 420 GP event and qualifier. The class continues to grow in numbers; there were many new faces, as well as some new partnerships hitting the water - this event was full!
A big thanks must go to the Race Officer, Nigel Russell and his committee for their brilliant courses and swift turnarounds between races, especially as a result of the light shifty winds and famous tides made it tricky, also another big thanks must go to Alistair Beardsall and his safety and mark laying team team for doing a great job on the water.
Congratulations to Harry and George winning the event (7pts), Imogen and Teddy 2nd (10pts), Joe and Hugo 3rd (18pts), Henry and Oscar 4th (26pts) Ellie and Bea 5th and first all-female boat after a very good set of results proving the homework on tides paid.
There was one more final race in honour of Bart Simpson which takes place every year all over the country called the Bart's Bash we were and we were proud to be a part of it. The Race Officer put a short beat to a windward mark and a long downwind back to the sailing well done to Teddy and Imogen who won the race with Joe and Hugo 2nd, Harry and Ralph 3rd.
