Topic : Daily reports from the champs - genius!

I'm back from holiday and finally got a chance to read all the daily reports from the Nationals. I read thousands of reports in my day job at Y&Y, and I can safely say that Tim Fell's missives were up there with the best of them. I genuinely got a sense of excitement reading about the battles going on. Damn good work!
 
If anyone has any photos of the sailing then please send them through, as they would be a nice addition. (Just a few please; not loads.)

Completely agree! - Tim you do a great job so thanks!

The reports were spot on and my father who was following the proceedings from afar commented that they must have been written by someone who knew what they were doing (not sure about that ;) ) due to the detail and language used.

That also came out really quickly unlike another class who's champs I'm trying to follow at the moment!

Mags,
 
Agreed the reports were fantastic, thank you Tim. Plus the video from the first day of racing made it onto the homepage of Sailing Anarchy, which has now had over 7,000 views!
 
Looe Sailing Club have put a load from the first couple of days on their Facebook page. Here is a link: https://www.facebook.com/LooeSailingClub

The comments on the Y&Y forum were that the videos from one particular day were a masterclass in downwind sailing. Much admiration for Stu and Tom's boat handling.
 
 I wish we could edit the videos a bit shorter, so you could get the best bits without sitting through 30 mins. And then add a commentary. Kinda like what Pat does with photo captions in the magazine, which can be illuminating or instructive.
