"All in" Tony Bennett Pursuit Race.
The first race of the year got of to a staggering start but the wind finally died on the 90th minute but we just managed a result. Well done to the young and clearly talented Leo Shuttleworth on a convincing win. The keelboats did not catch the dinghies but had a good fight between themselves.
