The weekend of the 9 and 10 April welcomed 41 keen Merlin Rocket sailors to Salcombe YC and a very sunny Salcombe Estuary for round 5 of the Craftinsure Silver Tiller 2022.
Overall winners were Chris Gould and Rob Allen with 7 points from the four races, finishing 5 points clear of Simon Potts and Holly McArthur, with Andy Davis and Pippa Kilsby in third just a point adrift.
Individual race winners were Arthur Henderson and Olivia Bell, Christian Birrell and Sam Brearey, Chris Gould and Rob Allen, and Arthur Henderson and Olivia Bell.
Winners of the Silver Fleet were David and Sarah Conlon, and the winners of the Bronze Fleet were Dan Heaton and Tom Gurney.
It was great to see lots of new faces and new pairings in the Merlin fleet this weekend. It was a tricky weekend and those who sailed a consistent series seemed to flourish.
A great weekend was had by all, and it was so nice to have some great conditions to yacht around in. Salcombe Yacht Club were great hosts as always, Salcombe Gin were generous sponsors of the event yet again, along with Craftinsure who are sponsoring our Silver Tiller series, for which we are very appreciative.
Next up we are off to Mumbles on 23/24 April, which was an awesome venue last time.
