Update on theTopper Traveller 2016

The first Topper Traveller weekend was hosted by East Down Yacht Club (EDYC) on Sunday 10th of April.

Three races were held on the Sunday in strong South Easterly conditions, circa 18 to 22 knots with 47 entries. Thankfully the rain held off and the blue sky and sunshine made for a pleasant but cold day on the water.
