Winning Start to 2010 with P&B

Congratulations To Andy Smith and Tim Needham on their victory in a cold and windy Bloody Mary Race. Andy (Mirror World Champion 2009) and Tim bought their 505 (pre tuned by Ian Pinnell) from P&B in November. It look's like it is fast out of the box!

In third place at the Bloody Mary Richard Whitworth and his new Crew Olly Turner were trying out P&B's latest development Merlin Spinnaker. Although our spinnakers have always been fast a little extra always helps. (Call Tom Stewart on 01604 592808 for all the latest news on Merlin sails.)

2009 ended well for P&B with Tom Gillard and Sam Breary winning the medium Fleet at the Grafham Grand Prix. Tom will be campaigning the P&B works Nautivela 420 in 2010 helping to develop our 420 sails. We have a Nautivela 420 in stock Prices From £7595. Tom is a former Junior European 420 Champ so he already knows his way around the class. Call Tom Gillard for all the latest P&B 420 news.

Steve Nicholson Memorial Trophy

The annual Steve Nicholson Memorial Trophy will be held at Northampton Sailing Club on Saturday the 24th January 2009 with all proceeds raised going to the Asthma UK charity.
