Hi Guys
The 9th annual Heron World Single Handed Championship has again been run and won.
Congratulation to Mick Armstrong in Heron 10363 who won the event convincingly winning 3 of the 5 races in both heavy weather and calm conditions.
A sterling performance.
Also, congratulations to the runners up with Steve Imlay in Flat Chat 10250 taking out second place with one win on race 5 on day 2 and placing second for all the other races missing out by one point, and Chris Carey in She Said Yes 10288 who came in 3rd overall and won the 3rd race on day 1.
The rest of us lingering behind need to lift our game for next years event.
The racing on Saturday was exhausting with very fresh winds and strong gusts with several retirements and capsizes, whilst Sunday was extremely light until the seabreeze kicked in later in the day.
It was a great event with all participants having a great time.
See you all there next year for the 10th running of this unique event.
Regards
Peter Connor
