Allen and CB Coverstore sponsored Midland Area Solo Series at Carsington Sailing Club

 

Carsington held the first event of the Allen and CB Coverstore sponsored Midland Area Solo Series and first event of the Midlands Big Lakes Series.

22 sailors were welcomed to a sunny pleasant morning in the Peak District with a medium wind starting to form on the lake. With a forecast for the wind to pick up throughout the day and four back to back races planned, a great days racing ahead was in store.

So after four exciting races it was congratulations to Mike Sims Carsington taking the event win with Andy Wilde Ogston second and Jonathan Swain third. I would like to thank Carsington for holding a very enjoyable event with a strong race management performance and event organisation.
