We got a fantastic 46 entries at the last Summer traveller event at Grafham last weekend. This is our biggest non Nationals traveller event ever by lots (I think 36 was the previous record). Seven new South African boats were there too.
Watch this website for the full report in the next day or so.
Cheers

A BIG THANK YOU to Bob and all the chaps at GWSC for a most memorable weekend's sailing at the last summer traveller. Sadly, I don't get out on the circuit too often, but this event goes to show why I should - Great racing, good company and great fun. What more could one want from a weekend?

P.S. thanks Robin for the impromptu coaching as you overtook me on the beat!!

Robin replied:

No problem.

What you really want to do is watch George on a beat in a bit of a breeze. Note his traveller position, main sheet tension, sail shape, pointing (lack of) and flatness of the boat.
