The 2008 Spring Series kicked off on Sunday 21st April in the same inclement weather that sailors have enjoyed all through the winter series! Only the wind had relented, sticking to the medium ranges, but the sun was as distant as Cape Horn to an RYA Level 1 candidate.

Mark Weston Achieves Grand Slam of Winter Series |
|
|
|
|
Two 2nd places and a 3rd were sufficient to tie up the Early Spring Series for Mark “Iceman” Weston on the final day of the Early Spring Series last Sunday, April 13th. This gave Mark an unprecedented “Grand Slam” of 3 wins in the 3 series held this winter. Mark was the first of a quartet of Solos to head a total entry of 32 boats that competed in the Early Spring Series, with Jonathan Gledhill, John Gledhill and Howard Frear taking 2nd, 3rd and 4th places overall.

Winter returns to the Early Spring Series |
|
|
|
|
The weather forecast for the Day 5 of the Early Spring Handicap Series was for strong winds and snow, but on arrival clear blue skies and moderate winds greeted competitors. The wind however was from the north and icy, and probably explained the competitors reluctance to come to the start line, leaving OOD Hamish sitting for 20 minutes studying how the shifting wind was potentially wrecking his superb course. He was kept company by Tim Keighley, who made it to the starting area on time but was happy playing around with his new Rooster 8.1 rig.

Laser Northern Grand Prix and Solo Northern Travellers
30th March 2008.
Almost 50 boats took to the water at West Riding SC on 30th March for the opening events in the 2008 Laser Northern Grand Prix circuit and the Solo Northern Travellers Series.
Despite the weather forecast for 7-10 mph winds with a few sunny intervals, competitors arrived to find a white horse filled lake and scudding squalls out of a brilliant sunny sky. As a bonus, after weeks of bitter temperatures someone had turned the global warming on, if only to the first notch.
