25 different boats battling it out in increasingly cold and windy conditions
The Winter series started mid and light but, as the events have gone by, the temperatures have dropped and winds increased. This isn't putting off one of the newest single-handed fleets and wIth 25 entries from different D-Zero helms across the series, the D-Zeros now have fleet status, sponsored by Suntouched Sailboats.
Fleet results are still being crunched as I type, but expect to find the updated ranking here: D-Zero Series, as soon as they are available.
The D-Zeros have been producing some great event reports from various members of the fleet, showing just how keen they are to get out in their brand new boats. See more from Mandy Horton on the class association website www.d-zerosailing.org
