Henry Wetherell
Henry Wetherell clinched his first Finn national title at Mengeham Rythe SC on Sunday after only one further race was possible.
British Sailing Team member Wetherell also took the U 23 title, ahead of GAC Pindar U 23 Cameron Tweedle in second with Grand Master Graham Tinsley third.
An impressive 58 entries underlines the growing strength of the UK Finn fleet with 10 U23 sailors taking part. In recent years the British Finn Association with sponsor GAC Pindar has supported an U23 squad with grants and training, and four of those were among six U23 sailors in the top 10.
We are holding a Beaver bake off and BBQ on the bank Holiday Sunday evening
Tickets are £5 each and include BBQ meat, salad and breads followed by various cakes and desserts.
Alternatively if you bring your own meat then help yourself to salad, bread, cakes and desserts for £2.50.
Please join in and submit your entries to our fun bake off, we have 3 categories,
1-breads,
2-cakes and buns,
3-deserts and puddings.
All entries will be both judged and then eaten by the people attending the event.
It’s all a bit of fun but we will have prizes for the winners.
Beaver SC welcomes and supports the young sailors taking part in a regatta on 14th April 2018. This event falls under the new banner of North East Youth Racing and is an amalgamation of the North East Youth Travellers and Yorkshire and Humberside Youth Sailing Association.
YHYSA states on their site; This series is intended to encourage young sailors to travel around the region and to get them into a competitive yet friendly racing environment which will include on the water coaching for those who need or want it to help them improve boat speed, handling and of course their results.
The series will once again be run under the wing of the RYA NE Regional Volunteer Team but we welcome help and input from parent volunteers who are prepared to put something back into the sport by helping and encouraging the regions young sailors.
See YHSA site here.
Hopefully the weather will be favourable but sporty enough to provide good challenge and that Beaver’s open water and quality club facilities will make this an event to remember.
