56 Supernova single handed dinghies headed to the idyllic ‘English Riviera’ of Brixham for the first time for their National Championships over the weekend of 28th-30th June.
The class had the sponsorship of Hartley Boats, Neil Pryde provided event t-shirts and Parkers of Bolton have donated a fabulous Go-Pro camera for a prize draw.
11 sailors from Bolton Sailing Club entered and competed against 6 previous National Champions attending – including two double champions – the Bolton group also travelled the greatest distance!
After 3 days of highly competitive sailing, 3 Bolton sailors made in to the top 10 and other sailors achieved positions of note.
