After a fantastic evening on the beach playing games including space hopers, wheel barrow races, rounders, volleyball and many more. The sailors had great fun and made friends across the country.
Tuesday morning was grey and dull with almost no wind but the Mirror sailors were not put off. After a 1 hour postponement, racing started in a South Westerly force 2-3.
A Fleet of 44 Mirrors awoke to a warm sunny day with force 2 southwesterly. Race 1 got away 1st time with one individial recall. A pin end start and going left paid for Sarah & George Richards in "Tinytanic" who lead at the 1st mark followed by Milly & Nick Pugh in "Wild Cat".
6 Mirrors raced in the West Lancashire Yacht Club Mirror Open with 2 boats travelling long distances and 4 from the home club. Despite the original forecast a great day was had by most with long awaited sunny weather.
