So good to be back out in the water! Thanks to our new Commodore, Will for opening the season and welcoming everyone with his vision for the Club. It was great to get 3 very close races away. Congratulations to Gwynn on Red Pepper for taking out the Potter Cup and Liam Heseltine in a Sunburst winning the Junior Potter Cup. Next week, we have our first race to the Landfall Tower.
