DUN
LAOGHAIRE, JUNE 2010
Congratulations to Mike and Penny Fenwick
on their fine performance in 'Ghost Rider' . In a truly
testing series the Weymouth-based couple mastered a tough
fleet to take the 2010 UK title in real style with a fine
win on the last day.
Runners-up were Dave Best and Pete Richards with SCYC clubmates
Nigel Harris and John Stephenson close behind
in 'Banshee'
Note
that eight of the top ten Squibs were using Batt sails exclusively
throughout the 2010 event.
Veterans Mike Probert and James Bryer ( Pani Munta) finished
strongly to grab fifth slot on countback from Mike Hughes
and James Smith in the new 'Pocohontas'. This left Roger
Harris and Mark Hughes in 7th, the evergreen Gerard Dyson
and Tony Saltonstall eighth and the top ten was rounded
off by defending champions Chris and Mark Hogan in RicO'Shea.
The
2010 Batt Sails race-winners enclosure boasts RicO'Shea,
Alchemy, Sophie ( Sam Cole & Denise Sinclair), Banshee
and Ghost Rider.
Our
thanks also to many other Squib sailors for helping continue
our proud record of success in this remarkable class....
-'Batt'
sails have won 12
of the last 13 UK National Squib Championships.
