Against all odds, we finally managed to get a regatta in this season. With a variety of COVID safety measures in place, the Nepean Sailing Club hosted the FANFARE regatta September 8-9th 2020. PRO Andrew Hope and his race crew took advantage of some great wind 5-12 knots and sunny conditions to get 6 races off on Saturday for the 505 fleet. Sunday was a bit lighter winds with overcast skies and some rain but we still managed to get an additional 3 races to cap things off.
Ron and John showed everyone how it’s done once again to win the regatta. Brent and Martin chased hard, hoping for some big breeze that was forecast for Sunday but never materialized, finishing a few points back in 2nd. Third place went to the mother-daughter team of Shona and Evania sailing a really consistent regatta. Honourable mention to Christian sailing in his first 505 regatta with his father Rob crewing. They joined the fleet this year after purchasing 7776. Another mention needs to go to Jacob and Philippe as the only youth team in the fleet.
