Sailing did not take place on Sunday due to the absence of so many key members. Racing as usual this Sunday, with Anthea's bacon butties a great start to the day.
Daniel Jackson, in yacht Artful Dodger, recorded yet another famous victory on the Haven last Sunday. This puts Daniel in a very strong position entering into the final stage of the series.
Tony Spiller and Billy Stubbs recorded a notable second in yacht Amphora. They are currently lying second overall, only a few points behind the leader. The final two races of the series will be nail-biting. Watch this space.
DARTS
This week we are at home to the Prince of Wales B. Captain Terry Evans is unable to play, so vice- captain, Colin Parmenter, will co-ordinate proceedings and hopefully inspire the participants to a win!
