Gunfleet Sailing Club held the second of its pursuit races on Sunday 26 July 2026, this time appropriately named The Chase.  Having calculated the time each class of dinghy would take so that there would be a complete tie for first place, the boats were then set off at staggered times with the finish being exactly one and a half hours after the slowest handicapped craft got underway.
