The 2004 59er national championship was held along side the 9er open at Queen Mary Sailing Club last weekend.

Saturday brought light winds and drizzle making for interesting tactical racing but not very exiting to do or watch. Sunday’s racing was delayed for an hour while waiting for wind. Eventually the wind came, building through the day to make the last race of the day fast and furious.

While Dave Hall and Adam Clark from Thorpe Bay YC won every race the really interesting racing and place changes took place in the fight for second and third. Rob Dulson/ Christine Irendale just taking the runner up spot from John Bennett and his son.
