Hi folks, it has been a great weekend at the Filey Sailing Club annual regatta, Beaver won the tide clock trophy for the highest number of entries from a club. A number of club members had individual achievements and I will try to get a full results sheet to share with you. ![]()

It’s only a month now until the Queens Platinum Jubilee weekend and we have organised 2 days of racing in the Platinum Jubilee Regatta on Saturday 4th and Sunday 5th of June. ![]()
On the Saturday night we plan to light the new club BBQ and get together for a few drinks and something to eat. If you want to join in then please bring your own food and drink, the kitchen will be open to everyone if you don’t want to BBQ. I am sure lots of people will be camping over the long bank holiday weekend and it’s definitely a case of “the more the merrier!”
We have been reliably informed that our recent Streaker Open event has made page 37 of the Goole Times this week, if anyone would like a copy you can call 01405720110 and have one sent out to you.
If you plan to BBQ on Sunday please remember to bring your own BBQ. The club one was scrapped last year and the replacement one has not been fabricated yet! ![]()

On a day not expected to breech gusts of upto 20 mph, what a surprise our nineteen flotilla of Streakers had, with a demanding North Westerly wind creating some uncompromising moments both on the beats and the unruly close reach across to mark one from five buoy.![]()
Afer a recall with half the fleet encroaching on the line the days event eventually burst into life with an increasing wind to punish everyone on the first beat down to the far righthand side of the lake.![]()
After a cracking lunch laid on by our hosts and with Martin Penty holding top spot followed by Richard Hanby also from the Beaver stables, it was left to Steve Blackburn, Peter Gray, Giles Therkelson-Smith and of course Alan Gillard, Vikings premier sailor to knock Martin off his pedestal, but all to avail with Martin continuing his dominance picking up another two hard earnt victories, to crown him King of Yorkshires own Beaver event.![]()
Our other top five potentials were left to battle it out for the prestigious remaining 2nd and 3rd places, whilst![]()
Mid fleet the rest battled every inch for that higher spot of glory, whilst slightly off the pace the back seven swapped and changed positions, with some taking a cold dip and others having rigging failures to bring the day to some nail biting finishes and alter those most paramount important placings. ![]()

Sadly a few missed a cracking day through illness, but keen to get back on the water from nearly an eight month break was Welton's own Lianne Therkelson and being our only female competitor did her recovering shoulder injury no favours, but strived through two bruising races to end her first outing as best as could be expected.![]()
A big thanks to our hosts Beaver SC that excelled in every department, especially with the increase in water levels after last year's cancellation due to a few inches of muddy water destroying the racing scene.![]()
Thanks to all the volunteers both on the water and in the clubhouse and certainly an unexpected gesture of good will everyone receiving a prize.![]()
Hope to see a good turnout at Welton SC in a fortnights time.
