Chaos and Bedlam
The annual Chaos Cup was sailed on January 15 with 23 entrants heading west of the bridge. A moderate north-easterly became less consistent beyond Bradley’s Head, but there was enough to enable most boats to finish around 4pm.
Adrian Walters’ Little Nico was the first boat home, taking the Division 1 win from Exile (Rob Reynolds) and Advanced Philosophy (Peter Sorensen). John Crawford and the crew of Innamincka claimed the Division 2 prize ahead of Alliance (Ben Thompson) and Pindimara (Mark McLean). Frank Milner’s Pinta Bay won Division 3, the second race of the Jeanneau Cup series, and backing up their win in the Seven Islands Race. Galan (Mike Gallagher) and Slac-n-Off (Martyn Colebrook) were the next Jeanneau’s to cross the line.
The much coveted Cock of the Club Trophy, whereby teams are made up from a randon selection in each division and there scores tallied, was presented to the winning team of Exile (Rob Reynolds), Alliance (Ben Thompson) and Eau Well (Lee Hawksey).
