Barry and Sue Parkin ran in a close second in an eventful series on Hayling Bay. Going into the last day's racing they were the only boat that could topple Greg Wells from top spot. In the event they won the race but Wells did enough to win the series. A thoroughly deserving champion .

The Parkins use the Batt Sails AP mainsail, flat Code 1 jib and the new 2008M spinnaker. After the series Barry Parkin commented " We have really good speed at all time and I think the new kite is just great. I was pleased we could hold our own in the stronger stuff".

Barry then teamed up with Tim Hall and they landed a great 3rd overall at the Europeans in Kinsale.
