There were over 100 entries for the RS200, 800 and K6 joint open meeting at Hayling Island SC over the weekend of the 6-7 July.

Mark and Sam Littlejohn got into the groove in the 48 boat fleet of RS200s with a win in the final race after Tom and Jo Hewitson took the first two races on Saturday. The Littlejohns then wrapped it up with two wins on Sunday in a better breeze that gave exciting racing in Hayling Bay.

The Hewitsons finished second overall and Pete Vincent and Doris Danbury finished third. Highest placed HISC entry were Harry Roome and Helen Toms in fifth place

In the RS800 fleet, also attracting nearly 50 entries, Lee Sydenham and Adam Brushett put together a very consistent series to win from Mike Lennon and Nicky Griffen to make it a HISC one-two. Steve Irish and Martin Gotrel took third and Geoff Carveth and Craig Davies fourth.

Rounding off a successful RS/Fatface weekend, RS chief Martin Wadhams and his all girl crew won the well attended K6 series by just one point from Jonathan Calacione and Ian Murrin, with Phil McDonald and Matt Coleman finishing third.
