The F4 gusting F5 Easterly made conditions extremely challenging on Thursday for Andrew Eddy and his team of helpers, but thanks to some excellent seamanship and dogged determination by all involved, ten J 70s eventually made it safely to the Undertyne moorings from Cowes in readiness for the annual J 70 weekend (now in its seventh year).
So twelve races in two days and lots of happy competitors! In third place after two discards was Rosie Gosling and her crew in 740; second was Ed Eddy and crew in 736 and in first was Tom Preston and his crew in 735.
A huge thank you to the RYA and RTYC for allowing us to charter the J70s; to the Race Officers and mark layers, the numerous helpers (especially those involved in collecting and returning the boats from/to Cowes) and of course to Andrew for such brilliant organisation.
