Last week I competed in the RS Aero World Championships as part of the RS games down in Weymouth. The Championships consisted of 5 days of racing which was very tiring due to the heavy winds and big waves.
Overall I am very pleased with my performance in the Aero as I finished in 22nd position out of 61 boats which was way above my target going into the event.
The weather, particularly on the last 3 days brought severe winds of above 30 knots which was a physical and mental challenging. The waves were big which meant it was excellent downwind sailing.
This was my first time in the RS Aero 5 so I am incredibly pleased with my result and my performance in the tricky, windy conditions.
I would like to take this time to thank my Sponsors Sailing Chandlery for all the support they have given me throughout the year with fantastic ropes and blocks etc and also to Gill for the fantastic clothing which kept me warm throughout the event.
Excellent, fair pricing, fast delivery! Would recommend
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
