Hibiscus Marine Coatings Winter Series Race 5

Published 21:02 on 7 Jul 2019

Today was the perfect day for launches and fishing, not sailing. However, 17 boats and their respective crews for race 5 of the Hibiscus Marine Coatings Winter Series were happy to bask in the winter sunshine, nimbly drift around the course and deftly deal with each wind shift as it came. And there were many. So plenty of patience was needed. And in particular, big shout out to Wharanaki IV and Stark Raven for their tenacity for lasting the legs, but the lure of fishing got the better of them in the end!

Thanks to Ian Clouston (RO), John Bruce and Peter Cooke on Olympus and Ted and Sarah on Chase.
