Sailing Chandlery sponsored sailor Jamie Cook tells us about his experience at the 420 Inland Championships.
The 420 inlands was rescheduled due to the icy and windy conditions that we faced in March. The event was also shared with a few others classes which meant we were sailing an infamous triangle sausage course which was great fun.
When we launched on Saturday we were expecting light and shifty winds but were actually greeted with a nice semi trapezing wind which was great for close and exciting racing. We managed to kickstart the event with a good first race and a decent second race However, we were held back by a bit of a boat issue in the third which then became our discard. Thanks to the spares and equipment we’ve managed to acquire thanks to Sailing Chandlery we got the boat set up and race ready for the last day of racing. Overall, we were sat tenth after the first day with plenty of opportunity to gain places due to the close racing.
The second and final day in Rutland started off grey however the sun did come out towards midday and the fleet was greeted with a nice range from 7-12 kts which fluctuated through the day. In the first race we managed to pick up a 6th which was a good way to start the day. As the were only two races on Sunday we finished the last race in 7th place which boosted us up to 8th overall. As we felt fast that day it would’ve been nice to see what one more race could have done to the overall standings.
The weekend was a great chance to check over the boat and equipment before we head to France next Sunday for an event. It was great to use some of the ropes that have been tapered by Sailing Chandlery like our spinnaker sheets as they help us to keep on top of boat work so we can focus more on the racing. Thanks as always!
Just the job for mooring warps for my motor canoe. Pleasant to handle and plenty of elasticity. Delivery prompt. Very happy.
Very pleased - strong rowlock at a reasonable price. Prompt delivery.
Quality product. I have used these before, but have learned only recently that replacement O-rings are available. Definitely a bonus!
Delivery was prompt and the goods were well packaged. Very pleased.
Perfect shape for a complicated job and delivery and communications were excellent
The 750ml size is idea for longer outings, particularly in the warmer months. A good quality bottle.
Sturdy well-shaped brim, good stitching. All in all, very good value.
A very robust design with an easy to use valve and attachment ring. It also has a loop to tuck the valve away to stop it snagging on the shroud as it's hoisted which is a nice addition. Overall an excellent float.
Good price, delivered on time.
Great to deal with no problems .
Done quickly
It's sturdy, it's not going to fail like a block. Great for trapeze blocks
As requested and fast delivery
These are the only covers that will stand the high temperatures, humidity and pollution from the near by power station. We are based in Larnaca Cyprus with very long summers. I will highly recommend them. Plus Sailing Chandlery staff are brilliant.
Bought for my son. He was delighted with it!
I did wonder how I would change the battery on my timer and this kit s the answer !. I race land yachts and do a two minute rolling start which can be rather mad it times so i need that battery !
