41st Annual "Brains Open Race" 2008

 Bob and Nick


Bob Bowen joined myself and Miranda of ‘Dancer’ a Hunter Horizon 272, for the 2008 Brains Race. It was a lovely warm and sunny morning when we arrived at the club. We had a lovely breakfast which was laid on for all the competitors. The race was set to start at 9.15am however there was very little wind and so the race was delayed until 10.00am and the course was changed to compensate. The course that was set was a windward leg up to Aberthaw cooling tower and then a run back again to Barry. read more and check out the results.......
