The Jubilee Cup is one of Weymouth Sailing Club's all-in races where dinghies, squibs and yachts all start together. All boats race around the same short course and average lap racing is applied to determine the winner.  With boats of different sizes and speeds the start line can be quite interesting !  This year a pleasant F3-4 breeze welcomed the sailors and a small trapezoidal course was set.

Good brisk winds were perfect for the first race of the Rear Admiral's Cup.  The RAC is an interclub competition for the four yacht clubs in Yacht Clubs of Weymouth.  Each club is represented by three yachts and there are three races - 15 May, 5 June and 27 June.   Boats sailing in the WSC team are Paul Barford in Sole Bay, Jez Rees in Farr Out and Chris Olding in Folio.  Provisional race results after the first race Rear Admiral Race results race 1

What a great final day racing in the YCW Spring Series !

When the IRC fleet proved a little too keen a general recall came into play and the first start of the day produced a lesser-spotted black flag to keep the competitors in check !  Everything to play for today with 2 races in near perfect conditions, however the windward mark of the first race disappeared in a thick mist, the worst visibility for weeks.

Foxed Again sailed two excellent races to clinch the IRC series.  Well done to Andy and Justin Campbell-Watson and team.

The PY class was won by a Contessa Swenn sailed by Stuart Roebuck and Jo Perry.  Well done to them both for sailing two handed throughout the series.
