MYA Vane “M” National Championship 19th & 20th October 2024 Final Results

Strong winds from the S East / S West and heavy rain greeted the competitors on Day 2, the final day of the above Championship. With the unwelcomed change in conditions the competitors were asked if they were willing to continue to race and 2 decided  to retire, as they did not have sails small enough for the conditions.

Racing continued and the last 6 heats were completed by the remaining competitors.
