Royal Lymington Yacht Club Peter Andreae Trophy

Event Date: 27 December 2000
Author: Stuart Jardine

Twenty-three Junior sailors turned up for this year’s Trophy, sailed in the Club Scows. Conditions were ideal with a moderate NE wind and high tide at 1130 hrs. Three age groups sailed in the heats of 7 or 8 boats with the top three from each fleet moving forward into the final.

Once again the better sailors in the Junior and Intermediate fleets were able to master their Seniors in the final.

The strong rivalry between the junior sailors is showing clearly, their improved sailing skills and tactical awareness is becoming more evident by the year, which is great to see and bodes well for the Club in the future.

Overall Results:



Once again thanks must go to everyone who helped run this event, from ashore recording and sorting out the finances to those in the RIB’s, on the Bridge and the loan of the nine club scows for the regatta, as usual all went very smoothly.

All Club Members involved in organising and running the Royal Lymington’s junior racing programme throughout the year must take credit for the high standard of racing.
