Some light winds on Saturday meant a couple of short races around the Swashway were just about managable. The PSC Race Team did a good job of getting the second race away in some very shifty conditions. Jemima of Farley was chased hard by Andaxi for both wins.
With only five boats staying at Gunwarf, a relaxed pontoon party preceeded a cracking evening at the PSC Clubhouse with the legendary Red Herring pairing of Tony and Karen providing the curry.
Sunday brought more breeze and some longer courses. Andaxi took the first race from Carinosa before a switch to the Island shore for the second race in a strenghening breeze. Again Andaxi took the win, this time from Connie with Coric and Carinosa just staying ahead of Starstreak.

8 boats turned up for the 2026 season opening hosted by the Hamble River Sailing Club and had 4 fun races in a wide variety of conditions. Saturday was light and very very very shifty with 5-8kts from the North, but the race committee managed to complete the two scheduled races with Lecas and Andaxi taking a win each and Connie (with guest helm Robin Milledge) taking second in both, leaving Lecas the overnight leader on countback from Connie. Sunday was breezier with a steady 12-15kts and gusts of up to 25kts. With the wind from the North-West and the Spring Championships taking place nearby, course options were limited - but Drumbeat were victorious in the first race (avoiding the IRC boats with panache) and Connie took the second (up and down Southampton water to avoid the other fleets). With four different winners in each race, it came down to the number of second places which gave Connie her first event win in current ownership and an early lead in the inshore series.
