Jack Grogan and Chris Agar, sailing in Helmut Shoing II, 105, won the 28th edition of the Squib Gold Cup, hosted by Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, over the Early May Bank Holiday, 4th and 5th of May, 2024.
21 boats competed over two days of perfect sailing conditions, with the easterly wind, 14 knots, gusting 17, allowing the Race Officer, Edwin Buckley and his Team Phoeby, to run smoothly the 7 races scheduled without too many issues.
After the first day activities concluded there was a well attended Mexican dinner at the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club, with more than 120 people attending, followed by an entire night of DANcing, at Royal Burnham Yacht Club, to celebrate the Royal Corinthian Yacht Club Squib class captain, Dan Wastnage, 60th anniversary.
