Racing – Latest Race Results

Sailing Secretary’s report for the 2021 season that was.

Well, we managed to pull-off the fullest racing season we have had in 3 years.

 

  • The Spring Series comprised 4 races and we had 7 competitors battle it out in some cold weather
  • The Vice Commodores’ Cup series saw 5 competitors across 6 races
  • We ran the 3 Junior Regatta races in the morning before the wind became too strong with 8 – 10 boats competing in 3 races
  • We ran 6 races in the Senior Regatta, and we had 21 boats compete for the Commodores’ Salva
  • Harry Edwards series had a select group of 4 competitors across 4 races
  • Frostbite series saw 10 boats turn up to race with 4 being part of the series of 5 races
  • 3 Orford boats, team raced against 3 Aldeburgh boats, in the Dixon Trophy with Aldeburgh winning 2 races to Orford’s 1

 

In total, we ran ~40 races and 2 Round the Island fun events including a memorial event for Mike Pearce.

Stand-out races for me were the Dixon Trophy team event against Aldeburgh, and the Sea Race.

See the pictures below from these events and some pictures from the legendary Frostbite lunch.

We are busy planning the 2022 season and I look forward to seeing you on the water.

Yours,

Troy (Sailing Sec.)
