Stone is on the south side of the Blackwater estuary in Essex, three miles west of Bradwell. From the A12: A414, B1010, B1018 to Latchingdon, straight on on an unnumberes road through Mayland and Steeple towards St Lawrence. After St Lawrence, left at sign to The Stone. It is not as difficult as it sounds, and it is very pretty, but the roads after the A12 are small and twisty, so allow time.
The club is welcoming and friendly, and has a very active 505 fleet, with a number of 'hot-shots'. Safe for kids. Sailing is within the estuary at its widest point - tidal, but not excessively so; classic east coast estuary sailing. The event is ranked 1.25.

There are certainly worse places than Stokes Bay to sit on the beach in the sunshine waiting for a sea breeze to arrive. This was an event which could have easily finished without a race sailed, however the persistent race organisers managed to conjure up a two races to break up the sunbathing.
The first race began with a 5-knot sea breeze and a beat with the tide. Leaving the gate early and heading out to sea seemed to be the smart move and Terry Scutcher / Richard Tew did this to good effect to lead at the windward mark. John Donnelly / Kenneth Williams the pathfinders did not suffer too much from being forced to go right and rounded in second place closely followed by Clive Robinson / Gary Cawthorn.
As the majority of the fleet rounded the windward mark what was left of the sea breeze vanished and a very light offshore wind filled in. The change in direction combined with the strong tide meant that boats that did not stay high lost out significantly. Scutcher / Tew held on to win, Hector Cisneros / Lawrence Crispin came from nowhere to take second and Stuart Turnbull / Jason Lunn finished third.
That was it for Saturday and on Sunday conditions were virtually identical. The second and final race was sailed in a 5 knot sea breeze and was dominated from start to finish by Robinson / Cawthorn. They led comfortably at the first mark from Simon Payne / Bill Masterman. Gains were possible on the first reach by going high with a strong current pushing most of the fleet well below the lay line. Tew / Scutcher took advantage of this and moved into second only to lose places on the final beat. Payne / Masterman recovered to take second and Andy Williams and Andy Edmonds came in 3rd. Overall Robinson's win gave him equal points with Scutcher, but the tie was decided on the last race giving Robinson overall honours.

8 races were run combining Olympiques and super Olympiques triangles under a great Organization. Ian Pinnell from the UK was out of reach on the first day in Force 4 conditions with a 2nd, 1st, 1st placing in the three first races but his performance on the two first races of Saturday in very light conditions did not allow him to stay in the lead. He was taken over by the French team who had sailed very consistently at the top of the fleet regardless of the wind fluctuations. On Sunday, in very flucky conditions varying from 5 to 1 the battle was very tough between the two teams but finally Philippe Boite and Jean-Luc Muzellec made it without having to race the last race.
Jean-Luc, who is the president of the 5o5 French class, said that Ian was unlucky the second day with a bad jib choice who forced him to return to the shore and made him miss the start of a key 5th race.
