New faces
due to the new demand for the Boss meet for the second round of the Gala
series. New team, Pirate FM (Mr Chairman) Tim Cunliffe/Vicki Watling led
the fleet to the windward mark. Places changed on the downwind leg, but
East Coast crew Stitch Print Connelly/Green won the first race. Connelly
again won the second race after a close taking dual with Team Pirate FM.
The wind picked up for the final race of the day, which suited Reynolds/Sledge
to give them the gun and an early shower. A day where consistency and
boat handling gave Reynolds/Sledge the overnight lead, with Pirate FM
in second.
Day two produced the closes racing of the fleets, with three new race
winners. Team Pirate, Cunliffe/Watling took line honours after a very
close race with Reynolds/Harris, and Baza/Allen. The second race went
to Steve Bell/Okenden after well-executed start, and the fleet left chasing.
The final race of the day went to Baza/Allen, having found the go button
on their new boat. Team Pirate FM, chased all the way, again a very close
race amongst the fleets. The final outcome going to Team Pirate Cunliffe/Watling,
having sailed the most consistent series. An encouraging sign for the
Nationals only one month away.
