LLSC gets 1st 1st 1st at Travellers
LLSC Juniors cleaned up again in the first open meeting after their largest training camp ever in the North West. All 3 fleets at the Redesmere North West Travellers event were claimed by LLSC sailors. Peter Baldwin, OOD on the day praised the effort of LLSC club sailors. He wasn’t prepared to add up the number LLSC sailors who travelled to the event and presented the prize (chocolates) to Lorcan Knowles . They did not last very long.

Steph Wingeatt winner of the handicap fleet in her topper had a well prepared speech and got a great round of applause. No mention of the capsize in front of the club house though.
Harvey Leigh snatched the optimist winners trophy then substituted his speech with a 25m dash. Best speed he had all day.
