RS Aero UK Spring Championship at Island Barn Reservoir Sailing Club by Mike Jones and the RS Aero Class 29 Apr 14:41 BST 24 April 2021
The weather played ball, with a cloudless blue sky all day and a shifty, brisk Force 3-4 wind from the east gusting up to 18kn. Class racing for 43 RS Aeros in these ideal conditions was just what the RS Aero UK Class needed after several months without an event!
The RS Aero Spring Championship 2021 was Island Barn s first major event of the year, coming only three weeks after the end of total club closure, and so a real test of all our systems, volunteers and continuing safety measures.
