RS Elites Hoisting Spinnakers in Hayling Bay © Peter Hickson The RS Elite fleet got off to a low-key but highly competitive start to the 2021 season after having all open events in 2020 cancelled or postponed due to COVID-19 restrictions. The Hayling Island SC Spring Regatta held on Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd May should have been the first open event of the season but the host club was forced to restrict the entry to members only, due to ongoing government restrictions. Despite this and despite the fact that lack of wind on Saturday forced postponement of all races, nine RS Elites appeared on the start line on Sunday for the first of three races in a shifty sea breeze which provided tricky but exhilarating sailing.
