Portishead Yacht & Sailing Club staged an Olympic regatta on Saturday, with a series of short races held in great sailing conditions.

Colin and Derek Jarvis won gold in class one, as Steve Pascoe took gold in class two and Christine Jarvis claimed gold in class three.

Steve and Hannah Brooks competed in their 420 dinghy, a smaller version of the 470 which is an Olympic class dinghy.

Steve said: "The wind built steadily throughout the series of races, which made for some exhilarating sailing, those who took part thoroughly enjoyed the event."

A fellow competitor added: "It was a great atmosphere at the club on Saturday, it was also great to see so many of our newer members on the water with experienced members."

Competitors also got to enjoy a barbeque after the sailing had finished.
