CVRDA members joined with the Lowrider Moth fleet to take part in Weston’s July Cup weekend. Conditions proved good for sailing with warm sunshine and a building breeze and increasing choppy sea each day. Sailing took place over the high water stand period and the race officer fitted in three back to back races each day.
With most visitors camping in the club grounds, there was good sociability as well as sailing and plenty of boat talk, boat bimbling and repairing.
Results include full Moth fleet for completeness. Prizes were awarded to CVRDA eligible fleet and to Moth fleet.
CVRDA fleet:
1st – Ian Marshall – Int. Moth Magnum 5
2nd – David and Debra Milner – National 12
3rd – Graham Hughes – Int Moth Magnum 7
4th – Simon Meacock and Kate Middleton – Int 14
Honourable mentions go to Henry Walker for 5th place in his Int Moth (Skol 3) and to David and Debra in the National 12 for being the only CVRDA eligible boat to complete all races.
