| 5 teams participated in the "HYC Instructors Inaugural Race" on Friday evening, 9th Sept. Instructors from as far back as 1978 participated in the regatta - next year, we'll hopefully have a team of instructors racing from the 1960s! Thanks very much to all the teams that participated (and hopefully we'll encourage even more teams next year!):
Thanks very much to David Cagney and Bre Dalglish for doing race officer and assistant race officer. Thanks also to our commodore Roger Cagney for doing the prize giving. And thanks to Harry Gleeson for setting the course and doing rescue. The results from the 3 races were: |
