Any avid reader of Boards mag may have noticed in Dec issue- page 97
are the results of the final round (of 4) of the UKWA Four Nations
wave sailing competition, held at W Wittering some time in the Autumn in
F5-6 conditions.
Second in the Amateur/Masters section was one Oliver Long, who must
surely be our Ollie, son of Kim. The writer of the article (Simon
Crowther who finished 4th in that round but won the Amateur/masters
title overall so knows what he's talking about) said that with a better
wind angle Ollie would have got higher in his jumps and done better.
Obviously a very good performance by Ollie.

| Bognor Regis Yacht Club hosted the Annual Alex Rose Trophy for
boats of all classes from the Pagham, Felpham and Bognor Sailing Clubs.
In warm conditions but initially light winds a course was set to
take into consideration the low tide and proximity of the rocks. A large
entry of twenty eight crews made a clean start and almost immediately
the wind began to pick up. Ross Fisher from the Felpham club, coping
well with the changing conditions, easily led the fleet home in his
Blaze winning by a margin of nearly four minutes. The next seven boats
finished within two minutes of each other and Nick Farrer, in a RS600
was placed second just eight seconds ahead of Paul Adams and Mike Hughes
in a Hobie 16. Despite several capsizes and a busy time for the safety
boat all crews finished the course. With conditions becoming more
difficult, the second race of the day, the Town Cup, saw fewer entries
but a keenly fought race requiring good tactical skills. With the wind
becoming stronger as the
race progressed and the sea choppy, conditions favoured the catamarans
and Paul Adams and Mike Hughes completed a good day for them by passing
the finishing line in first place. Ross Fisher, also completed a
successful day by taking second place and Simon Chaid from Felpham was
third. Thanks to Brenda and Joe Elwin for organising a successful event
and to John Parsons in the safety boat who was kept busy for the second
week running. |

| On
Saturday 1 st September a young disabled sailor, David Morse
aged 14, will be sailing from Cowes to BRYC in a trimaran.
His sponsor is the New Earls Court Boat Show and they will be on
site at the Club to welcome him ashore at Bognor.
This is the same day as the Birdman Rally and his route to the
Club will be past the pier in order to avoid the rocks. A request has
been made for some of our sailors to go and meet him somewhere
near Selsey Bill and accompany him back to Bognor. Safety boat cover is
being provided by his sponsors. |

Hi
We are having a great time down here. Spent three fantastic weeks in
Australia being entertained and shown around by Joe's family, it was
great driving through the bush on empty straight roads for miles and
miles!!
We had temperatures in the high 20s/low 30s as we explored the beautiful
countryside. Damien took us to Australia Zoo (5 minutes from his home)
and we stroked kangaroos and koala bears. Found a nice yacht club at
Ballina and Joe spent some time talking to the cat sailors and pilots
(there was a sea plane parked outside)!
We came to New Zealand ten days ago and David and Clara Adams has been
showing us around some great locations.
We spent the last three days sailing around the Bay of Islands on a 31ft
yacht with winds ranging from 25-35 knots - some exciting sailing!
David sends his best wishes to all who remember him.
See you all too soon.
Best wishes
Brenda and Joe
