Winter Championships and Point Score

What words to use to describe the conditions ??? Champagne? Perfection? You had to have been there?
The course was set for the NWN land breeze of 5kt. Subsequently it was lengthened twice as we were rewarded with improving conditions before race time.

There was a bit of tide, Clarke Island came into play, and the shifts were there. It made for tactical racing with good pressure for most of the day. A big battle between Alistair and Coxy in the radials as they vie for champion status. Full rigs pushed the limit on the start line with "just made it" dips at the pin. The 4.7s joined with the Woollahra training squad for the final race of the day.

A precise start at 0800 and a return to the clubhouse at 1000 with a warm sunny deck to wind down on. Great day.
