Congratulations to the 10 RS Aeros who took part in this year's Tiger Trophy at Rutland.

 

The recent snow had melted but an unforecast lack of wind on Saturday meant no racing and an opportunity to pose for the webcam instead for those stuck at home!

 

Their patience was rewarded however with three good races in sunshine and a medium/fresh breeze on Sunday. With good wind and open water the faster boats were able to stretch their legs and dominated the top spots this time, whilst the RS Aeros had a good tussle within the mid fleet.

 

Noah Rees (Torpoint Mosquito) in his RS Aero 7 edged out Chris Larr's (Northampton) RS Aero 9 on tie break to be top RS Aero in 49th place from the 127 entries. Richard Watsham (Starcross) made a welcome comeback to the fleet to finish 3rd RS Aero in his 9 rig.

 

The Tiger Trophy was round 6 of this winter's SailJuice series and Chris Larr now sits in 5th overall from 372 entries! The final Sailjuice event is The Oxford Blue which incorporates our RS Aero UK Winter Championship.

Just two weeks to go to the Tiger, time to get those entries in!

 

The Rutland RS Aero fleet has doubled to ten RS Aeros in the last few months and the Rutland Youth RS Aero sailors were out training in the snow today!
