Eight of us took our Marbleheads over to Littleton (Guildford MYC’s new home) today to compete in the Mermaid Trophy and part of the Marblehead Games series.

It was shorts weather last week, and polar weather today !! We were on A rigs in the main.

The huge proportion of the fleet were sailing F6’s – a very nice feeling for PH and GH, to see the result of all their years of hard work making an impact.

Two of our advanced Radiomaster transmitter projects were also in test today – looking very good! (More on this before the year is out) PH’s new TX15 was looking very smart showing off its multicolour gimbal illumination in the half light of the afternoon! Very Christmasy !!

The event organisers made an interesting claim – that this Games Series is the longest continually running Marblehead event in the country…. it’s been running since 1979 even through covid and lock down! Pretty good !!

It was a nice size fleet of around 12 or 13 competitors. Final results will be with us shortly. Hotly contested at the top! NB was beaten into second place by just 2 points, and HM came 3rd – both of them with a good number of race wins!
