Last week Seb Baucutt and Alex Farrall took part in the RS 800 National Championships at Eastbourne Sovereign Sailing Club.
With a consistently high set of results in three days of racing they posted 18th overall from 48 entries – winning the Silver Fleet Trophy.
Well done lads – this is an inspiration to all our cadets.

Saturday sees the start of the Sprint 15 Open. We are expecting around 40+ boats to be racing.
Club Racing will continue as normal from the Shorebox, Sprint 15 Visitors will be parking and storing their boats on the West side of the Car Park (next to the fence) and Camping on the North Side, these areas will be hopefully marked. Parking for Club Cars will still be available in the remaining space and through the gap in the centre.
