Richard and Tom return to the Bahamas on December the 28th for a few more days training before the start to their world championships on the 4th January 2010

Here’s the report about 49er National Ranker weekend on 03/10/09 from Richard Mason and Tom Peel

Richard and Tom returned to the UK yesterday after finishing 20th at the 49er European championships in Zadar, Croatia. The team were particularly pleased because they got their first race win in a grade 1 international event

We scored an 11th and a 25th in the last two races confirming our place in 21st

We have had 3 days racing and are currently lying 25th. With 8 races to go we are hoping to build on our position.

Team Murka made their way down to the South Coast to the home of the British 2012 Olympics, Weymouth Bay, to join the UK 49er Olympic squad for two weeks of training

We have a really hectic calendar with around 5 days sailing a week and loads of events including Kiel week in June, the World championships at Lake Garda in July and the European championships in Croatia at the end of August

Team Murka’s 49er campaign received and already tested their new rig for 2009 today

For the last official event on the 49er racing calendar in 2008, Team Murka arrived at a cold gray Grafham Water to do battle with 24 other 49ers.
