Richard Le Mare’s black and gold Hadron H2 stunned the judges at the show

With just 20 minutes to spare before the Dinghy Show build-up phase ended on Friday evening, Richard turned up with a completed ‘MIDAS’. Why was he late? Because he had been inserting 132 diamonds into the H2 logo on the thwart. It was the finishing touch to a super boat. Well done Richard!
