420 Inland Championships

The sheltered inland waters of Poole Harbour saw 31 420’s compete for the Inland Championships hosted by Poole YC. The forecast was exciting and Saturday’s first race set off in a good blow of 25kts. Safety cover was kept active especially between the races when a 35kt squall went through. The magnificent boat handling of this young highly competitive fleet was displayed again and again through the second race which Paul Campbell-James and Matt Gill won to make it two firsts for the day. Ben Field and Ollie Hawkley were second. The strong winds and tired sailors prevented any further racing on Saturday.

Sunday was bright and sunny with 10-15kts. A perfect day and early start to blow away the cobwebs of the live band from the night before. Much of the first race of the day was led by Karen Greenland & Julia Scott with Victoria & Emma Rawlinson close behind at the final leeward mark also being chased by Alex Cherry & Ollie Hawkley. After a duel up the final beat the line honours went to the Rawlinsons then Cherry and Greenland. Field and Hawkley then put in two firsts and a second to bring them into first place 4 points clear of Campbell-James & Gill. A first in the final race for Campbell-James and Gill was not enough as Field and Hawkley obtained a fourth to give them the Championship by one point. Meanwhile Greenland & Scott gained a 5th overall and were first ladies by 28 points of the Rawlinsons.

The race officer, Pete Hollow, managed a superb day with 5 races between 1030 and 1430. On one occasion only 30 seconds elapsed between the end of one race and the start of another.

Results: 1st Ben Field & Ollie Hawkley, 2nd Paul Campbell-James & Matt Gill, 3rd Mark Rhodes & Nick Hutton, 4th Mark Lees & Tim Paull, 5th and first ladies, Karen Greenland & Julia Scott, 6th Ian Martin & Tom Hutchinson. 1st U16 and 8th overall Nick Asher & Paul Davies.
