We are delighted to welcome two new teams to the fleet for the 2024 season. Both are already known in the fleet having borrowed boats to race with us, but they are now the proud owners of their very own BODs.

First up are David and Sarah Conlon who have purchased C75 The Mike from Mark Wilby and Phil Holding. This team have been racing very successfully in various borrowed BODs in recent years so we are delighted that they have now purchased their own boat and will be racing with us regularly.

Our second ‘new’ team are also familiar faces and in fact have bought back a boat they used to own. Joe and Sally Harman and Derick Gentry have purchased C44 Janice from Richard Austin, who had had the boat beautifully restored by Rob Maloney. Sadly ill health meant that Richard was never able to race her himself, but he is delighted to know that she goes back to Joe and his family and will once again be racing regularly with the fleet.

It looks like we’re going to be in for a bumper season folks and with Maggie and Adrian Smith also sailing Fi’s C51 Grethe the fleet will be well up to strength for Pyefleet Week 2024!
