Sweden - Sunday 26 June - Closing Ceremony and Results

Today dawned bright and sunny…which was a shame after such a rainy day yesterday.  We got up pretty early because we wanted to get everything packed up before the Closing Ceremony started, which meant emptying out the tent, de-rigging it and cramming as much as possible in both the car and the glider trailer.  Even though we’d given out all the gifts to the competitors, there still seemed to be no more room in the car than when we first set out!  We literally just managed to get everything packed away as the Closing Ceremony started at 10:00 in the glorious sunshine.
Both the Club Class and the Standard Class had a total of 5 competition days, and the 15 Metre Class had a total of 6 competition days.  The British Team finished overall in 4th Place.

Where did I finish in the results?  Well I finished in 10th place in the Club Class.  I was disappointed not to have a podium place, but I don’t think that looking at back at the weather conditions and my glider’s handicap that I could have done a great deal better.  It has however, made me think that it’s time to buy a different glider….
