ATF / NECRA REGATTA
Despite the weather the ATF sponsered regatta saw some excellent sailing. The strong NE winds tested the boats and crews but provided some enjoyable competition.
Unfortunately Whitby YC decided that it was too windy to travel but Sunderland YC braved the elements and joined us. We had a quick exciting feeder race from Sunderland to Hartlepool and then some bumpy 'around the can races' which although tiring gave some really good sailing.
The club then provided super food and entertainment. A good time was had by all.
Next year, with the help of the weather, this event should attract more visitors and become an excellent start to the racing calender.
Race results are on the NECRA website.

NECRA - WHITBY OVERNIGHT

The next NECRA event will be the Whitby overnight and race back to Hartlepool on June 20th and 22nd.
This is always a popular occasion that usually has good sailing but the main event is the social at Whitby. Whitby YC always puts on a good do and everybody enjoys their hospitality.
