After the problems with the tide, no-one wanted to go into the Stour again so the course for the President's race was set out from Suffolk Yacht Harbour to Pye End and back. As usual, we got an excellent start, in the first three over the line.

The fast boats looked magnificent.

We kept them in sight, but only just, and by the time we got back into the harbour the tide was running again. We managed to beat it by staying over Harwich shelf but as soon as we got past the corner we got washed back out to sea. After what seemed like hours we realised we couldn't get past guard (a red channel marker bouy) and retired.
