Nice Breeze for the Leading Edge

Race 2 of the Leading Edge Pursuit Series and Race 6 of the Adams 10 Winter Fleet Series was sailed today in a moderate to fresh and gusty westerly.  While still very flukey arounmd the start / finish area, it was a nice change to have some winter sun and a lively breeze out on the harbour that enabled all divisions to finish the full course around The Sound and North Harbour.

Garth Riley’s Sirius claimed a convincing win on One Design and PHS in the reduced Adams 10 Fleet to now lead the PHS series score and is second in the One Design pointscore behind No Friends (Geoff Charters).

Division 2 boats were first home today, with Laurie McAllister’s Zeusus getting the gun.  OCS at the start, Zeusus was penalised 5 minutes and relinquished the race win to visiting RANSA boat Asterix (Roberto Comacho). Third was Innamincka (John Crawford).

Andrew Hurt’s Onya was the best of Division 1 today, finishing ahead of Wailea (Neil Padden).  There was a close three-way run to the line between three bigger boats – Samarkand, Khaleesi and Nine Dragons, with Sandy Farqharson’s Khaleesi finishing just ahead to take third place.
