The warm up day to the RS Aero UK Nationals is the RS Aero Challenge Cup 'All Aeros' contest with the whole fleet starting together on a PY basis.

60 of the 80 RS Aeros entered finished the race held in medium winds with a good mix of each rig spread through the fleet.

Three RS Aero 9s sailed off into the lead with Greg Bartlett taking line honours. A bubble of RS Aero 7s followed with Richard Pye holding a slender lead from Peter Barton, Craig Williamson and Tim Hire all hot on his tail.

Ultimately the 7s prevailed after corrected PY with Richard taking the win from Peter and William Caiger in his RS Aero 5 taking third. Tim Hire was fourth with Greg Bartlett fifth.
