Falcon Championships 16th & 17th September 2000

The Millenium Falcon Championships, originally planned for SCYC Abersoch but re-scheduled at very short notice due the petrol shortage, where held in tidal waters at Dee SC.

20 boats took part in the 2 day event over the week-end of the 16th & 17th September in brisk conditions ranging from a force 5 on the Saturday, particularly on the ebb with wind over tide, but easing to a force 4 on the Sunday.

3 races where sailed on each day, with extremely close competition through-out the fleet. Overall victory by a narrow margin of a single point saw Harrier retain the trophy following a fierce challenge from Hawkwind.

Results and positions:-

1st 37 Harrier Mike Hartley helm, Georgie Dewar and Mark Hinton crew.
2nd 55 Hawkwind John Burthem helm, Linda and Simon Burthem crew.
3rd 58 Aquila John Corkhill helm, Alan Thompson and Hugh Jones crew.
4th 51 White hawk Phil Cheshire helm, Sue and Michael Cheshire crew.

Many thanks to all involved in the organisation and support activities from all competitors.
