For the entrants to the 11th round of the Solo Northern Series the fleet launched at 1.30pm and sailed out through the narrows joined by a sister fleet of Northern Bell GP14s and the Swan, one of the large passenger boats. Visitors from Bassenthwaite, Burwain, Blackpool and Fleetwood, Yeadon and Chester, joined three RWYC boats to make a fleet of ten Solos, milling around the starting area, south of the chain-ferry and with an archipelago of rocks between the start-line and the windward mark.
Prizes, kindly donated by Impact Marine, were presented by Penny Aubrey, the Commodore's wife, to Chris Robinson in third place, John Reekie in second and to Steve Dennison the event winner. Steve, who, on arrival at the Club and seeing the state of the windlessness had not even taken the cover off his boat and had had a scramble to get to the start, gave a fine vote of thanks to the RWYC and the assisting Members.
