A decent F4-5 blowing from the west meant more chop than expected for a seafronts race, following (or attempting to follow) the traditional course upwind around Fairway to the "Castle" channel marker (just off Southsea Castle), downwind all the way to West Pole just off Chichester Harbour entrance, then upwind again around Fairway back to the club finish.
The long upwind slogs against short period chop were uncomfortable for some but downwind for the entire length of Southsea and Hayling seafronts was a blast for the spinnaker boats.

Depending on the forecast it could be a Harbour race, the Nab Tower race, or any one of the other great variety of Hayling Ferry Sailing Club trophy races.
Keep an eye out for an email from the sailing secretary from mid-week onwards.
