Race results

Congratulations to Rueben! who continues his winning ways from last year (by a fairly slim margin – the top 3 only separated by 1 point each)

Today we were treated to fair skies, flat water and a nice easterly to start. The wind eventually shifted north, significantly speeding up the races as we were able to fetch the windward mark from the start.

Thank-you to everyone for braving the cold and coming out to make it a really fun event.  Also big thanks to:

Tom and Phil for race committee

Kayla and Lizzie (and Neal) for post-regatta food & drinks

My wonderful crew and partner Jungmi
