The 2000s took part in the final round of the West Country Boat Repairs Millennium Series at Stone SC on Sept 27th/28th. Stone SC are the most welcoming and friendly hosts, fantastic setting, lovely club house, free camping between the catamarans, really good catering and first class race management all of which combined to produce a memorable event.
Saturday saw fine weather and a shifty 10-16 knot SSE/Southerly with plenty of slants giving everyone a chance of some big gains and some real snakes.
Sunday early doors was quiet but by 10.30 start a reasonable 6-8 knot breeze had set in from due south.
With immense thanks to the race team and everyone at Stone for such a first class event. The final 2000 event of the year is the Inland Championships at Rutland SC on Oct 25th/26th. See you all there.
Helen and Andrew Philips had arrived 10 days early at Stone and had a touring holiday in the local area. They stayed Sunday night and did not set off for home until Monday morning.
Their sailing kit liked Stone so much it was all still in the changing rooms when they set off. Luckily they were an hour into their journey when they realised. A couple of phone calls later they knew someone was at the club to let back in but then Secretary of the club Simon set off with the bags to meet them half way yet again showing what a brilliant club Stone is and wining the Phillips's the prestigious Stone Duckhams of the weekend award.
