Brixham

 

 

Steve Linley-Shaw reports lots of activity down at Brixham with more boats due to join the fleet, maybe 6–7 strong next year.

The Sonatas race Thursday nights and one day each week end. The Regatta sees more Sonatas and the end of August brings a big new event this year – Torbay week.

Brixham Yacht Club is a friendly town club with good atmosphere and superb site overlooking the harbour. For the latest Sonata news from Brixham, including their celebrated Sonata World Series, visit the Brixham Junior Sailing Club web site.

The crew of "a piano!" have at last solved the question that many of us have been asking for years – "what's the point of pursuit races?". Photos show pursuit races BYC “a piano!” style. 2006 crew dressed for their projected voyage to the South Pole. 2007 Swan Lake – another failure/ forgot to build webbed feet for take off – lack of wind and propelled mostly by the loud speaker on the back.
