1985 Paul Hemsley elected as Class President 85/86. Ken Falcon wins a windy World Championship at Pevensey Bay (entry fee £30) and Richard Goodenough wins the Inlands (62 entries). Richard Lovett, Runnymede Dinghies and Seamark Nunn were no longer building Solos. The NSCA had 600+ members, the growth over the two years securing the class financially. Ken Falcon announces himself to the class with a memorable World Trophy win at Pevensey Bay in a Lovett 3315 from Dick Batt in Lovett 3300. It was a battle royal. Tony Thresher builds the first of many Solos, 3420. His development of construction methods and hull shapes innovative and ground-breaking. J de ventor won the junior title for the Netherlands in solo h444 (originally stone 2280).
