North Sails’ Charlie Cumbley won the 2017 UK Solo Class Super Series, of which North Sails are proud to have been a sponsor of, with a new sail being donated to the class for the series.
The End of Seasons, hosted by Grafham Water Sailing Club concluded the 2017 series. The one-day event had three races sailed in perfect 13-18 knot conditions. With 3 bullets on the scoreboard, Charlie won the event and the overall series. This is a title he has held onto since the series’ inception in 2015.
Congratulations to Andy Davis who was the winner of the North Sails prize sail, finishing second in the Super Series and second overall at the End of Seasons.
