Frostbite continues at Bexhill Sailing Club
Bexhill Sailing Club staged race two of their Frostbite Series on Sunday, with only four helms brave enough to take on the choppy conditions but sadly no windsurfer this time.
Although the forecast was force 5 gusting 6, it was actually a little less, and the bumpy sea did lead to a few capsizes by the two Laser Radials (Fast fleet) of Arne Lovius and Logan Adams.
Logan took the Fast fleet win, having completed one more lap than Arne. The two catamarans enjoyed the blast through the waves, with Flo Wright and Abi Wright completing one more lap than Wendy Watkins and Dave Baldwin, so taking the Catamaran fleet win.
However, Arne and Wendy/Dave are leading the Frostbite Series, so it's all to sail for this Sunday (Nov 2) in the final Frostbite race.
Bexhill Sailing Club's social committee will be working overtime this weekend with two events.
There’s a Hallowe’en Murder Mystery with a delicious meal, all written and organised by talented club member Lucinda Silva.
They are also putting on a 'Pickle Night' to celebrate HMS Pickle, a royal navy schooner, being the first to bring news of the Trafalgar victory and Lord Nelson's death back to England in 1805. There will be lots of rum shots and passing the port wine.
The following Saturday (Nov 8) is the final race of the year, the Poppy Day charity race. If you would like to join Bexhill Sailing Club for the 2026 season please contact [email protected]
