| Day three came and with the breeze building for the start of race 5 most boats had twin wiring conditions for the first time of the event. As the start gun fired one thing became apparent quite quickly, once Clive and Alex got A&E foiling she was seriously quick and instantly took advantage of the extra wind to quickly make tracks on the rest of the fleet and win the first race by a distance. | Day three came and with the breeze building for the start of race 5 most boats had twin wiring conditions for the first time of the event.

The spanking paddle went to Eddie Briddle for his late night escapades involving traffic cones and The Davey was awarded to Roland and Jay for some of their spectacular swimming action from the week. The prize for persistent underperformance – the Didgeridon' | So with the results completed and all the boats packed away it was time to head home, but there were prizes to be given out, After winning the series, in truth be told a quite convincing manner, Andy and Jill Peters on Usagi took home the Simpson Trophy and Ladies Teapot as 2015 Cherub National Champions.

| Once again the class would like to put in a massive thanks to Mumbles Yacht Club for running the event and the 4000 fleet for joining us and helping to make it possible. I believe I speak for everyone when I say it was a thoroughly enjoyable event and the people there were beyond helpful and happy to see us. I would also like to add in a massive thanks both to the people who helped organise the event and those who either lent or trailed boats around the country to help get as many boats as possible out on the water. The last thanks I'd like to thank is to all those who don't normally sail Cherubs but came down to have a go anyway, it was great to see new faces and I hope you caught the bug. | Once again the class would like to put in a massive thanks to Mumbles Yacht Club for running the event and the 4000 fleet for joining us and helping to make it possible.
