Riva Cup 14/15th June 2014



Well that was a really mixed bag for the racing cruisers.
A race to Scarborough, with very little wind, and a following swell, really was not what we were looking for. We really struggled on Double D, but had a lovely night out in Scarborough, with the real racers. Finishing at the S.Y.C. with an unannounced hog roast. Quite a lovely surprise, and a great way to finish our night.

Also a real thank you to Ed and Annie on 'Kathryn' for the pics, a really nice touch guys.







Sunday morning brought a light North westerly wind for the start of the return leg, after the full english, of course, on the harbour top, but quickly built into a wonderfully stiff breeze to beat home in double quick time.

Our next outing will be Wednesday 25th June 2014, an early bridge 0730, an 0800 start to race/cruise north in preparation for the "Overnight" race Sunderland to Whitby, starting at 2100 on Friday 27th.
