Craftinsure Supernova Travellers at Cotswold Sailing Club

 

The Craftinsure Supernova Travellers event at Cotswold SC was held on the 16th March. The recent non-stop rain had kindly stopped for the day, and the wind slowly built through the day to a nice 8-10kts from the south. Race officer David Hanson set a nice beat and a variety of runs and reaches to get back down the lake.

The Cotswold fleet were very grateful for the 14 visiting sailings who bolstered their large home fleet to make a nice fleet of 25 Supernovas.

Local boat Alex Reave was first out of the traps and lead at the windward mark closely followed by fellow Cotswold sailor Gavin Young, and visiting superstar Alex Hagen-Collins. Reeve lead around the course to take first but the places behind changed constantly, Young somehow got his battens caught on Collins shrouds leaving a nice gap at the bottom mark, letting Cotswold sailor Cliff Milliner and Bartley's Steve Hawley through into 2nd and 3rd.

After the traditional chilli lunch, the fleet ventured out for races 2 and 3 as the wind built slightly. At the first mark of Race 2, the port lay line was the place to be with Rich Storey coming in fast. It was the usual group, including Hugo Hanson, Hawley, Hagen-Collins and Young. Milliner found some pressure on the other side of the first run to jump them and follow Hanson around the mark. These 2 had a close battle around the course, until Hawley found a nice shift up the last beat to take second behind Milliner.

Race 3 was much like the other 2, very close at the front and all the way through the fleet, but this time it was Hagen-Collins who found the front early, Milliner slowly closed the gap and found a way past. The group behind were constantly swapping places, with Hanson finding the best lanes, just keeping Young out of the places.

Overall Milliner took the win from Hagen-Collins and Hawley.

During prize-giving all the sailors feasted on the incredible tea and cakes part of Cotswold's epic hospitality.

The Supernova Class Association thanks Cotswold for hosting the event and all of the sailors for taking the time to support the event.

Black Foils win ITM New Zealand Sail Grand Prix

 

New Zealand's 'Black Foils' - driven by Peter Burling - claimed victory in front of an adoring hometown crowd at the the second-annual ITM New Zealand Sail Grand Prix in Christchurch.

After the cancellation of racing on Saturday, SailGP implemented a 'Super Sunday' race format, consisting of three fleet races and then a winner-takes-all final podium race.

The first race of the day went the way of hometown favorites, the Black Foils, with New Zealand taking the lead on the start and finishing by overtaking France on the final mark to claim the opening victory on Lyttelton Harbour.

Critically, season leader Australia was ruled out of the event following a collision with a course mark just after the start, leaving them with event-ending damage to the green and gold F50. With the team heading into this weekend's racing in first place on the leaderboard, it was clear that this result would change the dynamic for the entire event.

Race two went the way of Canada - with native Kiwi driver Phil Robertson at the wheel. The race felt from the get go that it really was Canada's race with Robertson in jest telling the crowd of his victory, "I think I just became the favorite Kiwi putting the Aussies out of the running in the first race."

The third and final race to the podium saw Quentin Delapierre's France take the win, resulting in three races with three different winners - France, New Zealand and defending champions Canada - set to go head-to-head in the three-boat podium final.

After a great day of high octane racing, full of drama, the teams set for the winner-takes-all final, with Burling and the Black Foils heading into the race at the top of the event leaderboard.

A strong start from the Kiwis saw Canada having to keep clear of them on the line, with the Black Foils taking the first mark with France in hot pursuit. Canada split the pack after the second mark, a decision that caused them to trail for the remainder of the race and allowing the Black Foils to take a strong early lead, ahead of France, which they held onto for the duration of the race.

With over 22,000 fans in attendance over the weekend, the ITM New Zealand Grand Prix was the largest ever ticketed individual sailing event. The league now moves to the tenth stop of the season - the Apex Group Bermuda Sail Grand Prix - on May 5-6. For full details visit SailGP.com.

Swan nets sailing training vessel of the year award

 

THE SWAN has been named as 2023’s sail training vessel of the year by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) and the Association of Sail Training Organisations (ASTO).

The award is presented to an operator for fulfilling both the sail training aspirations of ASTO and the seamanship and safety requirements of the MCA.

Kerry McMillan, general manager of ASTO, said: “The competition this year for the UK Sail Training Vessel of the Year was tight.

“Swan’s range of operations was impressive including participating in the Tall Ships Races across Europe and venturing north to the Faroes.

“The panel were particularly impressed with how the crew dealt with mechanical issues in challenging conditions during the first Tall Ships leg.

The vessel, the crew and the organisation played such an important role in making all of the participants in the Tall Ships feel so welcome in Shetland. A fantastic year for the Swan.”

The Swan was also one of six vessels to be named Flagships of the Year 2023 by National Historic Ships UK (NHS-UK) prior to taking part in last year’s Tall Ships Races, where Lerwick was an official host port.

The event, which was successfully delivered under budget, gave 50 young Shetlanders fully funded sail training experiences, with 20 of them being aboard the Swan in the cruise in company and final race legs.

This included a visit to Yell during the cruise in company.

Sail Training Shetland, the organisation which secured funding for the 50 young Shetlanders as well as another 50 young people from throughout Scotland to take part in this adventure, were named ‘Sail Training Organisation of the Year’ at the Sail Training International Conference in November.

Chairman of the Swan Trust SCIO David Goodlad said: “It has been a remarkable year for the Swan, her crew and all those who sailed aboard her.

“As Trustees we are proud to oversee a busy diary for the boat which is not only an important part of Shetland’s maritime heritage but also a fantastic community asset and training facility which helps young people to develop new skills and increase their confidence.

“This accolade is a welcome acknowledgement of the hard work put in by Maggie Adamson (Skipper), Scott Sandison (Mate), Anja Kurtz (Bosun) and the rest of our volunteer crew last season and we thank them for their contribution to sail training in Shetland.

“The successful partnership with Sail Training Shetland to raise funds to provide sail training to our young people is highlighted with both organisations receiving recognition for the work we do”

The trophy will go on display at the Shetland College UHI Scalloway campus from April.

SailGP returns to San Francisco for Season 4 Grand Final showdown

 

Tickets for the SailGP Season 4 Grand Final in San Francisco are now on sale, giving fans the opportunity to once again experience the high-adrenaline conclusion to the SailGP Season 4 Championship on San Francisco Bay on July 13-14.

Already eight events into the 13-event season, SailGP's 10 national teams raised the bar yet again on incredible competition, action and drama - both on and off the water - and it will all come down to the thrilling conclusion on San Francisco Bay this July.

Will Tom Slingsby's Australia claim its fourth title, or is this the year that a new winner is crowned - and takes home the increased prize purse of $2 million for the Grand Final race where the top three boats in Season 4 will compete in one winner-take-all race?

There is no denying San Francisco Bay is one of the most challenging - and rewarding - places to sail in the world," said Canfield, a seven-time world champion and in his first season as driver for the American team. "We are pushing hard as a new team with our goal to be one of the top three on the starting line for that Grand Final."

With the anticipated top-end conditions that San Francisco is famous for, the F50s will be racing on the edge, consistently pushing the 60 mph (100 km/h) threshold as the 10 teams representing the United States, Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, New Zealand, Spain, and Switzerland race on San Francisco Bay between the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz Island.

National fundraising award for 'herculean' 262 island sailor

 

A retired air traffic controller who sailed around 262 islands in a 13ft (4m) dinghy has received a national award for his fundraising efforts.

It took Ken Fowler, from Mudeford in Dorset, over four years to lap every island off the English and Welsh coast.

Cancer Research UK have awarded the 58 year old Fundraising Volunteer of the Year after he raised more than £75,000 for the charity and Oakhaven Hospice.

"It's incredible, I'm blown away... I just wasn't expecting it, "he said.

He took on the challenge after he lost his father aged 50 and his mother-in-law to cancer.

"My dad was one of six siblings.... five of them died of cancer. The disease has decimated my family so that's why raising a massive amount of money to fund research is so important to me," he said.

"I carried a picture of my father and my mother-in-law in my boat so over the thousand miles I sailed they were the most magical inspiration to keep me going."

Mr Fowler started the sailing challenge in 2019 and completed the final island, the Isle of Wight, in June 2023.

"I completely underestimated how many [islands] there were - I thought there were maybe about 150 .... but it turned out there were 262!" he said.

He sailed all the voyages in his dinghy Yoda which he described as "literally the size of two bathtubs and generally just as wet".

"It's been a fantastic boat but most people would look at it and say 'you intend to do what in that'?"

Elisa Mitchell, Cancer Research UK's spokesperson for Dorset, said Mr Fowler "made such a herculean effort to help people whose lives are affected by cancer".

She said: "These awards are our way of honouring incredible people like Ken who give their time freely to raise money for research and promote greater awareness of the disease.

"Time volunteered is not ordinary time. It's time infused with passion, drive and determination. It's time honouring lost family members and friends. Or extra time gained thanks to advances in research."

The challenge saw Mr Fowler launch his boat 88 times, sail for 264 hours and clock up 1,336 nautical miles to complete all 262 islands.

YOUNG GUN HEATHCOTE AND TEAM GB VETERAN GRUBE WIN PARIS 2024 SELECTION

 

Sailors Vita Heathcote and Chris Grube will compete for Team GB in the mixed dinghy class at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the British Olympic Association announced today.

Heathcote will be the youngest sailor in the Team GB line-up aged just 22, while Grube, 39, will make his third appearance for Team GB having competed at Rio 2016 and Tokyo 2020 with Luke Patience.

The pair only joined forces eight months ago but last month scooped a silver medal at the 470 class World Championship in Palma, Mallorca, securing a quota place for Team GB and earning themselves athlete selection.

Heathcote, from Lymington, Hants, is a rising star of the British Sailing Team, joining in 2020 aged just 18. 

She was World Champion in the 420 class, the youth version of the 470, the previous year and has since scooped a European bronze medal as well as the recent World Championship silver.

The Olympic legacy also runs strong in Heathcote’s family – her uncle is three-time Olympic sailor Nick Rogers, who won silver medals in the 470 class at Athens and Beijing.

“It gives me goosebumps knowing that I’m going to be a part of the biggest sporting spectacle on earth,” said Heathcote.

“The Olympics has always been the goal and the thing I project my inspiration and motivation towards, so selection is a box ticked on the way there. 

“I feel like now I can really sink my teeth into that event and the progress up to it - it is a very freeing and unique sensation.”

She was World Champion in the 420 class, the youth version of the 470, the previous year and has since scooped a European bronze medal as well as the recent World Championship silver.

Heathcote will have big shoes to fill, picking up the mantle from Tokyo 2020 gold medallists Hannah Mills and Eilidh McIntyre.

Team GB has a rich history in the class, which until now was split into men’s and women’s fleets. 

Since the class was introduced to the Olympics in 1988 Team GB has won four silver medals in the men’s fleet, and two golds and a silver in the women’s.

The change to a mixed fleet, brought in for Paris 2024, opened the door for Grube to make a comeback to the class he’s competed in for two decades.

“In the run-up to the 2023 World Championships Vita needed a crew, and I was available,” said Chester’s Grube, who’s been sailing professionally since Tokyo 2020.

“Vita and I have worked tirelessly over the last six months. It’s a late campaign for us but coming second at the World Championships last month showed our capability.

“It means a huge amount to be going to the Games for a third time. I’ve had 20 years in this boat, and it’s always been my dream to win an Olympic medal. I’ve been to two Games and finished fifth at both, but I’m excited about what we can do this time round.”

Mark England, Team GB Chef de Mission, said: “Following their fantastic silver at the recent World Championships I am delighted to welcome Vita Heathcote and Chris Grube to Team GB for Paris 2024. 

“It is great to have Chris back in an Olympic boat for his third Games and I am sure his Olympic experience will make for a strong pairing alongside Vita who is making her Olympic debut this summer.”

Mark Robinson, RYA Performance Director and Team GB sailing team leader, added: “In Vita and Chris we have a proven winner at international youth level and an experienced Olympian, who after less than a year together have proven through their recent results that they are capable of continuing Team GB’s sailing legacy.  

“I know that they, together with our other senior pair Martin Wrigley and Bettine Harris and coach Jonny McGovern, will be pushing hard from now until the Games to ensure our legacy in this class continues.”

Heathcote and Grube are the 12th and 13th sailors to be picked for Team GB at Paris 2024, leaving only one spot, in the men’s kite discipline, still to fill.

The sailors selected for Paris 2024 are:

John Gimson and Anna Burnet – Mixed Multihull (Nacra 17)

James Peters and Fynn Sterritt – Men’s Skiff (49er)

Freya Black and Saskia Tidey – Women’s Skiff (49erFX)

Emma Wilson – Women’s Windsurfing (iQFOiL)

Sam Sills – Men’s Windsurfing (iQFOiL)

Ellie Aldridge – Women’s Kite (Formula Kite)

Michael Beckett – Men’s Dinghy (ILCA 7)

Hannah Snellgrove – Women’s Dinghy (ILCA 6)

Vita Heathcote and Chris Grube – Mixed Dinghy (470)
