After a cold winter the Snowdrop Series has seen the start of milder weather. After 6 of the 12 races, there have been 25 entries with 20 boats racing in the
first race on 21st March, a great achievement. This year we have had a few visitors from Trent Valley Sailing Club, who are warming up before therir season starts at the end
of March. Ben Richardson of Trent Valley has been demonstrating his skills at the front of the fleet.
There has been close racing in each race with Mike Pritchard and Ben dominating the race series so far. However, as ever the growing Phantom fleet are always at or near the front but
so far have not raced enough to challenge the two Lasers. A notable achievement so far is Josie Adams in her Comet and she is currently 6th overal, demonstrating that
well sailed slower boats can still be competitive.
