The 14th edition of the Seldén SailJuice Winter Series started in a promising manner, with sunshine and 10 kts of breeze for Day 1 of the Fernhurst Books Draycote Dash.
This breeze held well into the seond race, and allowed multiple laps to be completed by the 32 different classes. Unfortunatly the breeze quickly fell away, meaning the final two races were only over one lap, but at least Draycote managed to maintain its clean record of running all four races.
At the end of Day 1, Jonathan SWAIN (Solo - Carsington), holds a close first place, with Mrs and Mr Gray, completing the podium on second and thrid places. Rach GRAY and Amy CLAY (Scorpion) Staunton Harold SC, keeping Peter GRAY and Geoff EDWARDS (Osprey - Staunton Harold SC) at bay
