Hardway to Cowes Weekend Round-Up

Published 19:40 on 7 Sep 2025

Hardway enjoyed a blustery race to Cowes Saturday, with 8 boats battling it out all the way to the finish line! A great day on the water, plenty of breeze, and the very best of friendly competition. 

Crews celebrated with evening drinks and food at the Folly after a fantastic sailing crew race — the perfect way to round off the day!

The race back proved a true test, with strong foul tide and fickle wind making for difficult conditions. Only 4 of the 7 boats made it across the finish line — determination all the way! 

And of course, a huge congratulations to our weekend winners:
