The SRC crew in Shar during the CSSA Interdepartmental Offshore Races last October. Unfortunately gale warnings forced the crews to abandon the Cross-Channel race in favour of three races in the Solent. Twelve boats took part in the races and the SRC crew, which came in fifth place, missed a prize by just 107 seconds over eleven hours of racing. SRC crew shown from bottom left to right are: Richard Hilken (ACL); Tony Damerell (RL); Alan Bishop (RL) at helm; Ken Somerville (ROE); and Martin Hall (AL) skipper.
