It was Aldington’s dream to see offshore racing return to Falmouth and he had worked tirelessly to ensure that the Cornish town hosted a UKOPRA championship event again.
Class 1 Podium
Ornsby & MacGregor Racing were the sole finisher in Class 2 with Lee Ornsby, Ross MacGregor, Chris Drinkwater and Richard Saunders onboard.
Drive of the day came from Dennis Clemson who stopped to offer assistance to Class 1 boat On the Pull and then blitzed his Forgecraft hull in the rough.

Clemson with co-driver Cameron Shields won Class 3C and the Cornish 100 trophy based on an index of performance algorithm created on the back of a Benson & Hedges packet.
