2016 RS700 Volvo Noble Marine National Championship - The wind arrived at last on day three for a four race extravaganza. Race four saw Robbie choose the least favoured route to the right of the beat to clear the fleet at the windward mark. He held the lead to the finish. Big waves and traffic made for some white knuckle rides. Jerry Wales held on to a solid second. Neil Ashby finished third.

Race five got away in a solid 20 knots with Neil Ashby finding the front revelling in the conditions. Jerry Wales was second with home club sailor Adam Golding finishing third. John McKenna had a great result with fourth place.

Race six got away but with Pete Purkiss too keen and OCS returning with others to dip the line. Robbie Bell was eventual winner despite being chased down to a close finish with Jerry Wales. A solid performance by Ian Nolan secured third place.

Conditions moderated for race seven with Pete Purkiss going hard right and Robbie Bell choosing the middle. Robbie rounded first with Pete Purkiss second. Huw Reynolds and Jerry Wales split gybes and gained on the leaders. Huw rounded the leeward mark ahead of Pete and Robbie. By the top mark Pete had gained the lead which he held to the finish with Robbie Bell in second and Jerry Wales sailing into third securing his overall lead going into the last day.
