RS800 Coaching at Itchenor SC a great success

by Clare Sargent 11 May 2016 08:05 PDT 7-8 May 2016

Breeze, sunshine, top coaches... perfect! Sixteen RS800s gathered at Itchenor SC 7-8 May for a sold-out coaching weekend with current national champion Tim Saxton and 2014 champion Roger Phillips.

A mix of shore side teaching and on the water drills and races kept the 32 sailors on their toes.

Great photos thanks to RS800 Class Association Chair Chris Feibusch. A big thank you to coaches Tim and Roger and to Itchenor SC for hosting the event.

Your next RS800 event is the Open at Hayling Island SC 28-29 May. All the information is at uk.rs800.org/index.asp?selection=Events&uid=1344&fleet=RS800&detailevent=1
