Barnt Green Sailing Club - Optimist Open Meeting

Results from the Optimist Open Meeting held at BGSC on the 17th September 2011. Report by David Lockett, Class Captain.

The Barnt Green Sailors results were:- Main Fleet

5th Freddie Lockett.

8th Rachael Cross.

13th Saskia Inman

The Winner was Aaron Holman (Hollowell S.C.) for the second year running. He is the 2011 British National Optimist Champion. Pictured receiving his National Championship Award.

The main Fleet was very competitive and whilst first and second place boats were assured of their places, any one of three other boats could have taken third place and indeed the top six boats were all extremely close throughout the day. A slideshow of images taken by Bob Suggitt is HERE.

Regatta Fleet

1st Julian Kieley. ~ 3rd Martyn Forrester. ~ Jodie Kieley and Harry Vincent also took part.

This was a very inexperienced regatta fleet and after a shaky first race, came in for some lunch and then had a training session in place of the second race. The third race saw much improvement with all those who took part in the race completing it.

Thanks go to the Race Officer and his team and all the helpers who made the event possible.
