Race 3 (postponed) Spring Series 2019/20 - Race Report and Results

Once again we were delivered a gentle SE breeze at 7 - 10 knots, leaving us little option with course selection other than our most often sailed course 3. 

Our re-scheduled Race 3 was held in a pleasant 7 to 10 knot sou easter, which was a kind welcome to the new boat Etesian, who managed a good start and making speeds just half a knot less than the fastest boat, never looked back until she crossed the line well in front of the remainder of the fleet. Clearly we need to take a look at the handicapping...

Conquista didn't fail to impress us yet again, with another very quick sail up to Manly and back, crossing the line around 4 minutes after Etesian. Once again Conquista has shown us just how fast she can be, with an average speed of 0.55 knots less than the fastest boat.

Running in 2 minutes later and taking third place, was Martela, with Megisti coming home 17 minutes later in fourth, and Blue Sky - after struggling with the hoist of a recalcitrant Code Zero - managed a credible fifth around 7 minutes later.
