The results of a well contested race were:

Place Boat Name
1 Seren y Mor
2 Lazy C
3 Ruby
4 Myfanwy
5 Seclusion
DNF Promises
DNF Odyssey

Also out in the Bay for a sail and to take part in the experience were:

Lobo de Mar and Comrades

The conditions were good for a lively sail starting out at Force 4 and gradually easing.  The direction wasn’t as Southerly as forecast though which led to a couple of boats having trouble making The first mark.  Nonetheless a great sail was had by all.
