The trophy winners were as follows.
- 1st - Steve Thackham & Paul Wright in Amaryllis

These skippers were awarded an individual trophy to keep and Steve Thackham took the perpetual Shield to be returned for next year’s event.
MIRTEC Europe President David Bennett commented, “MIRTEC Europe has been based in Plymouth for the last eight years. As a local company we want to encourage and support events such as this.
