Frensham Frenzy held at sailing club

 The annual Frensham Frenzy has been held at Frensham Pond Sailing Club.

Thirty boats from more than ten classes braved the cold to sail it out in a very closely-fought competition that saw the top four boats on equal points.

The Frensham Frenzy consists of two pursuit races and is open to mono-hull boats, a maximum of 16ft long.

Megan Pascoe, 2022 world sailing 2.4mR European champion and FPSC member, who was sailing at the Frensham Frenzy, said: “It was nice to see so many different boats out for the frenzy.

Thanks to everyone in the club who helped run the event – definitely an interesting wind direction.”

Four boats finished on the same points so the race was decided, as per racing rules, on countback.

Simon Lomas-Clark took first place in his Solo, second place went to Sam Pascoe sailing a Phantom, and third place went to Rebecca Videlo sailing a Laser.

The first junior and fifth overall in his RS Tera was Oliver Stratton-Brown.

The first double-handed boat was father-and-daughter team Megan and Martin Pascoe sailing a Scorpion.
