Overall the series was well supported, particularly by PSC Squibs and dinghies from 1st Portsmouth Sea Scouts and the University of Portsmouth.

Two races were set, the first extending to around 2 hours but providing some extremely close results with Easy Tiger 2 beating One More Knot in the Club fleet by just 6 seconds.
