51st FROSTBITE SERIES 2007

FINAL REPORT

Not one of the most successful frostbite series with only three of the eight races programmed being sailed. Race 2 was abandoned when the wind died completely and Races 3, 4, 6 & 7 were cancelled due to too much wind.

The option of Course D to race in the reasonably sheltered waters adjacent to the Royal Naval Sailing Centre proved to be a valuable asset with races 1 & 8 sailed in this area.

Despite the lack of races the turnout was good with 14 boats taking part overall, 9 boats competing in races 1 & 5 and 6 in the last race.

Once again congratulation to Andy Cummins in his Laser for winning the series with 5 pts, followed by Dave Field & Rick Guy in a Bosun with 18 pts. Mark Goodenough & Graham Allen, also in a Bosun came 3rd with 21pts and took the prize for 1st PSC boat.

Prize Giving and a buffet took place after the race in PSC.

Our thanks go to the RNSC, the safety boat crews of the 1st Sea Scouts and Portsmouth University, also to all the helpers who are so essential in order to
run this event.
