James was promoted to division 2 at the end of the 2016 season and as the picture shows is at home on the rougher water, with a few more events at this standard under his belt he will start moving up the rankings.

Amilia Combes and Neal Underwood both attended Saturday’s event to gain some valuable practice for the new season, although neither raced.
