We start on May 8th with the Penhelig Trophy, May 9th Sunday Series 1, May 22nd Catrin Trophy, May 23rd Sunday Series 2.

Then the Milford Haven Cruise in June.

WEATHER PERMITTING

The season has started at last

Unfortunatly due to weather and lack of boats on the water the Penhelig Trophy and Sunday Series 1 had to be postponed. But the good weather last weekend ment that the Catrin Trophy and Sunday Series 2 went ahead as planned. Both days had perfect sailing conditions and although few in numbers the quality of the racing was superb. A steady Force 5 but flat sea and lovely sunhshine saw Bacchus win the Catrin Trophyon Saturday and Rivendell won Sunday Series 2.

The next Cruiser Event will be the DYC Cruise hopefully leaving to head North on Sunday 14th June.
