Richard Pye held off the faster boats in his RS Aero 7 to win Sunday's Pursuit Race and clinch overall victory in the Fernhurst Books Draycote Dash. The first event of nine in this season's Seldén SailJuice Winter Series, Pye won by the smallest of margins, beating overnight leader Jonathan Swain's Solo by a single point.
The event drew a diverse gathering of 62 entries, ranging in size and speed from the Topper to the VX One sportsboat, and in age from early teens to late seventies.
