It was a fantastic weekend at Carsington with the North Zone Squad, National Squad and Winter Squad. The combination of squads proved a real success over the weekend as they split up into the separate squads on each morning and then came together in the afternoon to race. With a total of 26 boats, the racing was very competitive and I think it’s fair to say that it was dominated by the veterans of the Winter Squad!!
Hi Guys, well are we all ready for the next instalment of the Beaver Winter series.
The sun is going to shine and the winds are going to be good for all abilities.
So Beaver members if you missed the first date come and have a weekend of
Mirror sailing to kick off the 2011 season!!!!
Report by ELLIE HIDE
After the carnage that was West Lancs, we started the weekend at Beaver by finding out that the girls changing rooms were being redone and so we had to get changed in the ROD box at the top of a steep ladder which was a new experience! And also with a quick reminder of rules, to prevent a repeat of the previous weekend, which had ended up costing a few parents due to repairs. Oops. We were gratefully joined by team Grayson who it had to be said were ever so good! Saturday morning was light about 6mph but we got straight on with our weekends objective, upwind strategy, by doing various exercises such as buddy beats, twin windward marks and aiming for 9.1 to help us think about favoured sides of the beat , boat on boat tactics and quickest route to the windward mark taking into account the shifts. We ended the day with taking and gibing on the whistle and the key word ‘smooth’ deeply imbedded into our minds.
We arrived at Draycote in pouring rain. It was cold and there was not much wind, but it was good to see everyone and get back into sailing again.
Rosie and Midge Watkins, Kim May Papailiou and Amie Sparks, Millie and Nick Pugh and Helena Pugh and Libby Courage all travelled from Poole Yacht Club. Tom Cosier and Niamh arrived from Restronget in Cornwall. Malie and Drystan Harnett from Whitstable and Reg and Emma Grayson from Beaver SC and ourselves Matt and Ben Lulham-Robinson from Yorkshire.
