Sunglasses and suncream at Yorkshire Dales!
The RS400 Trident UK Northern Tour moved to Yorkshire Dales Sailing Club for the second event of the season. The forecast promised a bit of everything, and that’s certainly what we got.
As the fleet rigged for the first race, many sailors were dashing back for sunglasses and a quick scrape of sun cream around their face.
Ollie and Esther’s dominance meant they won the event with a race to spare, but they had to work hard to get to the front in some races and behind them the other podium positions were far from settled until the last race.
Full results here, with report thanks to Hamish Gledhill and superb photos, as ever by Paul Hargreaves.
Next stop on the TridentUK Northern Tour is the Northern Champs at Bala, 10/11 May, which also features on the Rooster National Tour, closely followed by Filey Regatta on 17/18 Ma,y but before that there's the Harken RS Sprints Regatta at Rutland, 26/27 April. Details of all events here.
