Congratulations to John Gorringe & Toby Lewis who came out on top at Lyme Regis. John & Toby held their form from the inlands and showed great pace in the shifty offshore breeze. Andy & Tom also showed great consistency, unfortunately for them they had an OCS in the race that they won which means they didn't tie for the lead.
Speed sailmaker borrowed Matt Biggs's boat as Matt was away on business, this was the first time that he had sailed a Merlin since he won the nationals back in 1999. Sailing with Ben Hollis showed good pace as well and finished 4th.
Again another great result for Speed Merlin sails in the Silver Tiller.
