On Saturday morning, a huge 192 sailors arrived at Grafham Water ready for a chilly weekend of racing to finish off the season. Despite Grafham having low water levels, the Race Team still managed to provide two course areas and 6 great races for the ILCA Inland Championships.
66 sailors competed in the ILCA 4 class, who sailed an IX2/3 course all weekend. On Saturday, we were met initially with very light winds, however after a group briefing and the task of selecting the least muddy route down to the water, we were met with a breeze of around 15 knots with some larger gusts.
The fleet was raring to go on Sunday morning, so much so that we pushed the line a little too much and had a general recall. We promptly restarted and a busy line of sailors got off to a good start with the little amount of wind we had.
Leo Yates managed to walk away with the win, just 1 point ahead of Archie Munro-Price and 3 points ahead of Angus Beale. Top 3 Females were Amelie Hacker 6th, Kaitlyn Wyatt 12th and Josie Kelly 14th. A huge thank you to everyone involved for making it a great last event for the 2022 season!
A massive thank you on behalf of all the ILCA sailors from the weekend to all the helpers and volunteers who made this event possible. Especially the RO James Hynes and Neil Collingridge.
