Start Time 10:00 am

With heavy overcast skies and poor visibility, we had a reaching start in a
fresh easterly. We were able get spinnakers up at the Parsons Island turn,
which we were able to hold on to after jibing around Bloody Point as the wind
backed Southeast before it died. After two hours of slowly drifting up the
Bay, the wind returned again and quickly built to a fresh southeaster to give
us a beat to the finish.

The results after 30.3 nautical miles of fun and games:

1st. "Freestyle", Doug Abbott, adjusted time 6:37:11
2nd. "Edelweiss", Chris Bardwell-Jones, adjusted time 6:41:17
3rd. "Stalker", Al Holt, adjusted time 6:59:27
4th. "Leewind", Hal Wilson, adjusted time 7:07:31
5th. "Jaguar", Robert McGowan, adjusted time 7:18:09
6th. "New Broom", Paul Geppert, adjusted time 7:39:57

We also had one boat not finish and two boats not start.

Congratulations to Doug Abbot and his crew on Freestyle ...
they sailed a great race and were just too tough to beat!

 

 

 

I hope we will see you all at the 2004 PHRF "RWYB Regatta Cup" challenge!
