Race 6 of the Windward Twilight Series, 6th May), saw three Supernovas out on the lake! One was helmed by Phil Watson who is currently on a winning streak! Swapping from his usual Streaker to the Supernova did nothing to slow him down, but the recent race practice at Open events Simon and Julie Dolman have put in meant he had to settle for second equal alongside Jim Young in his Laser Radial with matching corrected times!

There was also a special trophy awarded tonight, to Sylvia Cornmell for her racing performance last Sunday - presented by her fellow racers. Sailing Secretary Simon Dolman commented: Sylvia is an upcoming Shotwick Lake Sailing star, and I suspect this will not be the last trophy she will win!

Overall Ian Duncan remains top of the table, with Simon and Julie in second place and Ian McCready in third.
