Hamble Warming Pan
Hamble River SC, Hampshire UK
24/25 March


Thanks to Hamble River SC for hosting a great weekend and the Class' invite. Great fun, friendly club, good food but a whole different type of sailing where you had to keep your eyes open for 50 foot cruisers barrelling through the fleet and time your tacks to make gaps between moored boats and see who’s nerve goes first close tacking or gybing up the shallows!

Final results saw Toby take the overall win in his RS Aero 7, from Gareth and then Karen. Congratulations also to Natasha Sion, persevering to finish 3 races in the lightish winds and strong currents in her RS Aero 5.

I'm in. Had trouble with their web site though. Had to phone up and they very helpfully did it for me on the phone.

The Hamble Warming Pan is a landmark season opener and it is great for the RS Aeros to be invited to this traditional annual event in 2018, the Warming Pan's 56th year and the final event of our RS Aero UK Winter Series!
 
The Warming Pan is the only large fleet racing event allowed on the River Hamble and the sight of 50 plus dinghies blasting up and down from the Hamble foreshore out to Hamble Point is one of the great sights of the year!
