Leading Edge Series Underway
The Leading Edge series of pursuit races got underway today and will continue each Saturday for the remainder of August. Races are held in conjunction with the Adams 10 Winter Fleet Series.
While the rain threatened but stayed away, the breeze was extremely light and variable in direction providing challenging conditions for crews and the race management team. The Division 2 fleet managed to sail a complete course and finish at the clubhouse, whereas the Adams 10 and Division 1 fleets sailed a shortened course finishing at the East Channel mark.
Andrew Hurt's Onya was the first Division 1 boat home, ahead of Stormaway (Jack Stening) and Tempo (MIchael Smith). The Carr-Cook-Burke consortium sailed Rumba home first in Division 2, followed by Innamincka (John Crawford) and TenSixty (Ian Green). Geoff Charters' No Friends was the best of the Adams 10s on One Design today, while Sirius (Garth Riley) took PHS honours.
