The Tri-Icicle Race - Snowflake SC, Horning, Norfolk, Sunday 24th October
Who is up for an adventure?!!!
Entries in by Sunday 17th!
The Tri-Icicle is a late season mini version of the famous 'Three Rivers' endurance race. It is a long distance passage race down the River Bure to the River Thurne and back. The maximum course is likely to have turning marks either side of the Thurne Mouth at Oby Dyke and Womack Dyke, giving about 12 miles in total. I love visiting pretty locations, long distance courses and river racing and this adventure has all three!
With the shorter course single handers can be included, as overnight sailing is avoided and there are no bridges to require the lowering of masts! The race has had up to 50 boats competing in the past and although only a smattering of dinghies this represents a nice challenge and it would be great to see a good fleet of
RS Aeros enjoying testing themselves on this course. Past results suggest that RS Aeros may have a race time of about 2.5 - 4 hours - with the ever changing Norfolk Broads scenery and continuous racing challenges!
