As part of the 2012 Winter Warm up handicap series, the Tiger Trophy held at Rutland water, took place on one of the coldest and snowy days the country had seen so far. 156 boats came together from all over to compete in the two day event. Three back to back races were held on the Saturday and one long pursuit race on the Sunday. Using this event as more of a training day to test out new techniques against such a large fleet, RAF College Cranwell's Ed Bolton King, entered his Laser Standard rig and set out onto the water for what would be nearly 4 hours at below -4 degrees with 20 knot gusts.
