Andy McKee and Richard Jones from Dovestone SC won out over the two days of racing with four first places and one-third.
Close racing ensured that 2nd and 3rd places were shared on equal points between Andrew Tunnicliffe and Ian Hopwood of Bassenthwaite SC and Steve Goacher and Tim Harper of Royal Windermere YC.
4th and 5th places were again shared on equal points between John Hanson and Helen Selden (4094) and Nigel and Gavin Tullet (4031).
McKee and Jones justifiably collected an astonishing array of booty, including the Bassenthwaite Cannon, the Loch Earn Quach, the Burntisland Cup, the Championship Trophy, and a prize from hosts Ullswater YC.
Had the Sunderland Sextant been available they would also have been awarded that too for winning the 5th race!
Tunnicliffe and Hopwood were commended for their 2nd place overall, receiving prizes from Ullswater YC and the Windermere Cup was awarded too ‘in absentia.’
