Handicap Series 4 and once more the fleet was small but keen




                      Only one yacht and four dinghies turned out for Handicap Series 4, but it was good to see Martin and Will back on the water in fine form, Benjamin on his Moth to provide thrills and excitement, and almost more rescue bots than competitors.


                                                 The moth mingled with the rest at the start..
                                                                                
 

                                                           and showed its amazing flexibility..


                                                                             as it tilted to fly past Ray...


                                      sun on the sails .. it looked like an interesting afternoon ahead..

 
.. everybody's a photographer these days,


                                               as the Herc crew headed off to follow the fleet


                                                              Steve and Morgan were in the mix..


                                                    Bank Cheque past us by


                                               Will was back on the helm with Martin as his crew



                                                              concentration was intense


                                                                 approaching the mark..



                                                                    From  Zoom, zoom,..


                                                               to a more gentle pace..


                                                      waiting for everyone else ... long wait!


                                                              striking scenes





                                                         Maria and Ray were the Impulse fleet




                                                      Steve and Morgan wore the wave



                                                    There was a change of skipper halfway through...




                                                         Intrigue got lonely and came over to play




                                                             a race to the last finish




                                                            the sail home was a blast..





                                            Maria certainly enjoyed being back on the water!
