We saw all of the sailors back from the summer break returning to our next Traveller at Exe Sailing Club.
The sun was shining and the wind was here too.
We all headed out on the water ready for race one, Brooke Browning took an early lead towards the windward mark, followed behind by Alex Murry and Harry Macleod. Brooke took the win for the first race followed by Alex and Harry.
In the 4.2 Jonathan Pendle took the win.
Race two - We all started straight off the line and closely all rounded the windward mark with only half a boat length between the top three. Taking the win was Brooke Browning followed by Harry and than Alex.
In the 4.2 Jonathan Pendle took another win.
Race three - The horn went but this time Alex had a good start and taking the lead followed by Brooke and Harry. Once again the top three were side by side all the way to the
finishing line, Alex Murray took the win followed by Brooke and then Harry.
In the 4.2 Isaac Pure took the win.
Race four - Off we all went and most of the sailors kept to the same side of the course towards the windward mark apart from Phoenix Hutching who went for the port flyer and nearly pulled it off but still putting up in the top three boats. Harry Macleod was in the lead followed by Alex and Phoenix. Harry took the win followed by Alex and Phoenix.
In the 4.2 Jonathan Pendle took the win again.
