Round the Island Race - Isle of Wight, UK
Congratulations to our RS Aero designer, Jo Richards, on his Round the Island Race win on Saturday. Jo was ably crewed by our Class Measurer, David Rickard, and another RS Aero sailor friend, Duncan De Boltz, again and this gives them back-to-back victories in the Round the Island Race retaining the prestigious Gold Roman Bowl which they have held since the 2019 race with their local Cowes boat Eeyore, an Alacrity 18 Bilge Keel.
It was the 90th anniversary edition and a huge fleet of over 1200 boats showed how much people love taking part in this event. On the water there was everything from flat calm to 25 knot gusts, fog and sun.
