The Med

Published 21:20 on 17 Aug 2025

Sunday at Shotwick Lake resembled the Mediterranean, as the hot balmy weather continues. But it was no distraction to the keen racers who competed for two more (races 13 and 14) Summer Series races and race 7 in the Sunday Afternoon Pursuit Series. A special mention needs to go to Jeremy Cooper and Dot for stepping in and covering race duties for the day. Even missing today on the water, Jeremy still retains first place in the series overall after 14 races.
