HD Sails Scottish Solo Travellers at Dalgety Bay © Glenn Halstead
After over 18 months of inaction the Scottish Solo fleet were finally able to enjoy our first HD Sails travellers event at Dalgety Bay SC.
This is a big dinghy sailing club on the North side of the Forth but not one the class had been to for some years. Big civil engineering works on the beach meant that space ashore is restricted but there was ample for us. The wind was W/NW force 2/3 all afternoon with plenty of shifts to cope with.
The chat in the dinghy park before launching was all about how unfit and out of practice we all were. Paul McCombie from St Andrew s reckoned he had not sailed since the last event in October 2019. Results on the water were to show the advantages of this approach! We welcomed newcomer Charlie Bracknell to the fleet who had travelled down from the north of Scotland.
