DYC OPENING REGATTA 6, 7 June 2009
Dartmouth Opening Regatta 5 - 7 June included a 100 mile Offshore Race. This attracted 5 PCA and A class yachts. The results should be on the DYC website.
Two days of round the buoys racing on Saturday and Sunday were held for all classes. Unortunately, there were not enough PCA boats to make a class, so the PCA and A class were combined. Climax finishesd first, Trouble second and Third Wave third. This race did not count as a season championship event due to the small number of PCA participants..
