2020 Chichester Yacht Club Frozen Toe Series by Richard Anderton & Karen Cheeseman 14 Dec 2020 16:01 GMT 13 December 2020
Sunday 13th December should have been the final race day of the Frozen Toe series, instead due to weather and lockdown it was the first.
The race officer, Richard Anderton, and racing committee took every precaution to minimise COVID risks at the club; a video briefing was published the evening before so that the competitors could be advised of the special arrangements. Limited by a high water just before 10am (requiring boats off the water by midday) and sunrise at 8am it was important that everyone knew the sailing instructions before arriving.
