GP14 Open
Sunday 18th July
There were 19 boats on the water, 12 of
those visitors, representing 10 different midlands clubs. For the first
time in many years the Banbury boats were outnumbered!
The wind was fairly constant F4/5 from the SW allowing PDO Tim Bury, to
use the full extent of the lake.
The first 2 races were dominated by the Visitors with Neil Davis &
Adam Froggatt (Chase) clocking up a 1st & 3rd, Carl Jeffs & Steve
Parker (Trimpley) 2nd & 1st with Paul Levers & Nigel Spur (Midland)
3rd & 2nd.
In the 3rd race the first 3 positions were once again taken by visitors.
Neil & Adam were 1st with Matt Thursfield & Sarah Alan (Chelmsmarsh)
2nd and Peter Jacoud & Peter Tate (Chase) 3rd. First Banbury boat
was David Bolton-King & Lucy Hoyte in 7th.
I would like to give my sincere thanks to Rebecca, Pat & Kevin for
looking after the Bar & Galley, and Tim Bury, PDO, and all duty crew.
