The new Cape 31 UK Musto caps are getting a lot of love 🥰 Keeping the fleet looking sharp on and off the water.

One race. One chance to make it count.

Day one of Round 6 at the Royal Thames Annual Regatta started slow, with very little breeze across the Solent.

After moving the course around in search of something to work with, we managed to squeeze in one race — Khumbu took the win, with Swift Half just behind in second and Jubilee in third.

A lot more breeze on the cards today. Fingers crossed for three good ones 🤞
