Sponsored sailor Sam Blaker tells us about his experience at the RS Feva National Championships which ran at the end of May in Weymouth.
My helm and I have just returned from Weymouth after competing in the RS Feva National Championships. After 4 days of sailing and varied weather conditions to contend with, our final overall position was 26th out of 106 boats.
Having had our briefing the plan was to get at least three races in on each of first two days, this was achieved and I must say with a real mixed bag of weather conditions to contend with, from the first day of experiencing some really shifty wind patterns to the second day having such light airs and warm weather which brought its different challenges. After the second day sailing we were lying in 35th place with qualified us for the gold fleet. The amazing weather continued into the the 3rd day and whilst is was nice to catch the rays it came with its frustrations as we only managed to get one race in which was also cut short but still accountable. At the end of day three we were lying in 19th position.
All change when we woke on day 4. quite overcast with winds that exceeded 23 knots at times, different challenges again to contend with but overall we sailed well. Our final position saw us in 26th place which was reflected in the final race where sadly we had to retire due to the jib collapsing thus not able to finish.
We had an Amazing weekend sailing and I would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsor ‘Sailing Chandlery’ who always support us - thank you
Slides easily through the blocks whilst providing firm grip
Item has brilliant bounce back ability, thanks
Simple to fit and makes launching and recovery simple. Well worth the investment
Quality material and design enables my lug sail to be stowed securely on it's spars
Great wide and grippy tyres for a shingle/sharp launching area and compound for an RS400.
Receive fantastic service couldn’t help any more if they tried. Arranged for me to collect my order at a time that suited even when it was outside of working hours. Much appreciated, thank you sailing Chandlery.
Excellent gloves, perhaps the best I have used. The fingers are long enough to provide protection from sheets/halyards and fit nicely so that ropes cannot get between the glove and finger. If the winter gloves are any guide they should also be very durable.
really happy with these! the thick material means that I will be warm whilst sailing, and the 3 finger coverage allows mobility and warmth on the water. the added grip will really help on the heavy wind reaches, can't wait to test them out this weekend. shipping was really quick, with a sweet included in my order thank you.
As always, great stock, quick delivery, perfect, thank you
The footprint of these is much more than standard trolley wheels so they roll on sand much easier.
These Falker Burgees are essential for our training fleet, giving an instant indication of apparent wind direction.
Made of stainless steel they do not corrode, and are easy to fit into the mast bracket.
It is a shame the sail part is not available as a spare as this part does not last forever, unlike the ss frame.
Nice product.
Arrived quickly and fits very well
Fast, efficient service and the lightweight trolley is perfect for my needs.
We needed to change the size and it looks like they will change the Hikers for a size up. Thank you very much
