Cruising to Ringstead Goes Ahead Despite Races Cancelled
Although the annual Ringstead races and BBQ were cancelled on August B/H Sunday, there was still a healthy fleet of cruising boats making the trip across the bay. In a moderate South Easterly wind Double Vision, Merlot, Winters Maid, Solveig, Xanadu, Growling Cougar, Tilted and Moonshadow all had a cracking sail, whilst an ungainly looking mastless Crystella (waiting for new standing rigging before you ask!) rock and rolled to the anchorage under engine.

'A long haul upwind' - the development of women's sailing in Weymouth
The process, whereby women became more equal participants with men in the sport of sailing, inevitably mirrors the struggle for women to obtain the vote, especially in the years between the partial success of 1918 and full suffrage in 1928 (see Joyce Marlow 2000, Jenni Murray 2018). Their struggle was against that apparent law of nature by which men had, for the half a century associated with the gradual decline of imperial power, congregated after retirement

50 years on
Thanks to Chris Olding for the kind loan of the original handbooks, and to Steve HB for putting them online, members can now look back in some detail at what the Club was doing in 1975, and, for comparison, 1965 and 1985 as well. It is interesting to see what has changed - but also what hasn't! The handbooks can be read at history.wsc.org.uk. Steve Fraser
