Sailing, Rowing & Running: Three Creeks 2026

The addition of running and rowing adds quite a twist to the usual coastal sailing race. With 40 miles of sailing (Dazcats Easy Tiger and Belladonna also had to get there), 20 miles of running including 1200m of ascent, there's a lot to manage and think about. The wind was quite gusty at times, adding an additional element of spiciness, especially during some of the drop offs for rows ashore. Skipper Will on board Belladonna managed it all brilliantly, organizing his teams. The runners maintained amazing speeds and Belladonna took line honours on each leg. Shore time was much enjoyed in Salcombe and the weekend was thoroughly enjoyed by all. Many thanks Realm Yacht Club for organizing and to all the boats and crews who participated.
