  Spring Championships Weekend 1

  The inshore Sigma 38 series got off to a fast, frantic start in the Warsash Spring Series. The big tides and fickle, patch winds ensured that after six races brains were totally frazzled and bodies were completely shot. In the Series so far, racing in IRC 3 Machismo is first, followed by Light and the Pandanova. All three boats won a race. Sadly Pandanova suffered a bit of damage on the first day and had

  JOG Nab Tower - the Perfect Shakedown!

  Saturday's JOG Nab Tower Race was the first Sigma 38 event of 2016, part of the Coastal Series that contributes to the Grand Championship. The four Sigma 38 crews entered had almost every atmospheric condition thrown at them during the 6 hours; wind of less than 5 knots for the start to broaching conditions once round the Tower, sunshine, hail, rain....the perfect shakedown! Pandanova finished first, with Rho second, Paracelsus third and Marta 4th. Pandanova

  Summer Plans

  As the nights are starting to lengthen summer plans are being hatched. For anyone who needs any inspiration look at Festina Lente's cruising blog the Flying Lentil from the summer of 2015.

  The 2015 Chairman's Report

  Looking back over 2015, I cannot avoid characterising the last season as a consolidation year for the Sigma 38 Class. But everyone needs to step back, take stock and consolidate, every once in a while. It seems we are all getting older, starting to question the sanity of flashing round the cans in early spring, and even the decision to concentrate spring sailing into two the weekends of the Warsash Spring Championships is not
