The One Design Regatta 2021 - 21 & 22 August

Published 21:58 on 27 Aug 2021

Before we get into the festivities of the very prestigious Edinburgh Cup over the next week, it would be amiss of us not to say a massive thank you to all our helpers for a superb weekend last weekend.

The One Design Regatta was held on Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 August 2021, incorporating the Squib Scottish & Northern Championships, the H-Boat Nationals and 707 traveller event.

It was not a little heartbreaking for competitors when the haar on Sunday prevented any races from going ahead, especially for those who had travelled or made preparations, but Saturday was a very satisfying racing day, despite the lashing rain! The atmosphere in the clubhouse for prizegiving on Sunday night made up for a frustrating day. Thanks to Pickering's Gin for sponsoring the event with some delicious prizes.

It was the first time that we have held an external event with the kitchen and bar refurbishments and it went fantastically well. The Lost at Sea band were also excellent in the evening.

Roll on the Scottish Championships and Edinburgh Cup 2021! We can't wait!

Thanks again to Joe O'Leary for some fabulous photos from on the water and to Sheena for clubhouse pictures.
