There were 5 entries. The wind was initially light from the SE. Mid heat it changed direction to SW, then strengthened and back to SE. After lunch most skippers changed down to 2nd suit sails.

One full round was sailed. Thanks due to Eric Austwick for looking after the Mates’ bank along with the bye boat skipper.

Sunday 10th May 2026 Woodhouse Trophy Vane 36R

There were 7 entries. As yesterday the wind at the start of racing was light from the SE. By lunchtime it had changed to NW. During lunch the wind strengthen further and most skippers changed down to 3rd suit sails. With just the last heat to go and a couple of resails any of three yachts could be overall winner. The full round was completed and just one resail required to produce the final winner. Thanks due to Eric, Sharon, Uncle Derek and the bye boat skipper for looking after the Mates’ bank.
