Class wins for Hyde Sails in XOD and Squib at Cowes Week

Home » Class wins for Hyde Sails in XOD and Squib at Cowes Week

Another fantastic Cowes Week saw a mix of conditions, the week opening with some solid SW winds and then some lighter conditions over the final couple of days.

In the XOD class, X166 Swallow helmed by Ben McGrane crewed by Jamie Stewart and Russ Clark had it all to do after a difficult day 3 when a penalty meant they recorded a 35th. Over the next 4 races they scored 1,9,1,2 to win the regatta on the final race. As with their Cowes Classic week win they raced with a full suit of the 2022 Hyde Sail XOD designs.

In the Squibs class Aquabat helmed by Phil Rust and crewed by Steve Warren-Smith put in a commanding performance counting 3x 1st and 3x 2nd, they won their class with a race to spare also utilising a full suit of Hyde Sails.
