The 2025 National Redwing Championships will take place here in Tenby from August 23 -29.

For Redwing Class racing on Thursday July 24, five of the seven local boats provided the red sails in the sunset, with the following result:

1 R244 Robin and Steve. 2 R190 Alex and Matt. 3 R228 Bill and Peter. 4 R241 Jules and Howard. 5 R178 Kevin and Merlin. July overall placings 1 R244. 2 R249. 3 R241. 4 R228. 5 R190. 6 R178.

On Saturday (July 26), with many crews away, Robin, Jules, Howard, and Steve, had a useful practice session using club marks. The Redwing and laser did six laps with six starts in a shifty force 2-3 breeze, which everyone enjoyed.

Earlier in the week, five dinghy racing crews enjoyed a very pleasurable evening on the water at Tenby last Tuesday, July 22.

1 R228, Bill Dowell and Peter Prosser. 2 Scorpion 1995, Peter Rose and Igor Otahal. 3 RS600 874, Steve Leach. (Race Officer Ted Lewis earned points for equal third) 5 Osprey 1330, John McKellar and Alaastair Knibb. 6 Osprey 1380, Dan Jackson and Matt Goldwait.

Next week, it’s all hands on deck for Tenby Sailing Club volunteers to ensure that the National Championships for GP 14s, Enterprises, and Miracles, give over 60 contenders a really first class week of competition.

Junior Training: There will not be a session on August 6 during the National Championship week for GP14s, Enterprises and Miracles being held in Tenby. The training will continue from August 13 until September 17.
