It was a blustery, lively race last Saturday.  Jeremy Moore sailing Excalibur was unfortunate enough to have a medivac call for his boat when his wife fell through the companionway and cut her head.  She is now recovering at home and he still managed to finish 7th in his group.  Best performance was Ben Rhodes (Lisette), who was 8th in his group and 10th overall.  Chris Rhodes (Peanut) was 2nd in group (46th overall) and Rex Frost (Fable) was 8th in group (245th overall).

Only a few weeks to go to the River Exe Regatta!
