Bill welcomes us to a new year of 'Fifteen events
So all the winter maintenance is done, the weather will soon start to warm up (I promise), and we’re ready to get stuck into a bumper season of Fifteen sailing for the UK class.
First words from new UKFFA President Bill Chard
My first newsletter as President, but I think most of you will know me already, and if we haven’t met at an event yet, hopefully that will change next season. I’ll start by thanking Ian Cadwallader for running the ship for the last couple of years and handing over to me with the UK fleet in such good shape.
Held 7th-8th October
This was the last event in the Flying Fifteen Southern Travellers series held at Broxbourne Sailing club who sail on the gravel pit in the Lee Valley.
Ian Cadwallader gives us the full SP on this year's favorites
Plenty of usual suspects, some new pairings, plus some big names from outside of the class
A final Letter from Cad
The state of the class, the weather, and how to get on with your crew!
