RS Aero UK Inland, Youth & Masters Championships - Oxford SC, UK, Oct 2025
Two days of sunshine and gusty medium breezes graced the fleet of 54 RS Aeros at the RS Aero UK Inland Championship which this year included the UK Youth and Masters titles too.
Good consistency and a clear head for a dynamic 'risk vs reward' guestimate was paramount, as text book tactics did not always work as the extent and frequency of the shifts were difficult to predict. The positioning of catching the gusts and finding a good mostly lifted route upwind proved much more important than increments of boat speed. This enabled great racing between sailors of various sizes in each RS Aero Class.
