You Travel Winter Cruising Race 4
Published 11:39 on 1 Sep 2019
Race 4 and final race in the You Travel winter cruising series got underway on time on Saturday in 13 to 28 knots of Southwest breeze
7 starters got of to variously timed runs for the 11 am start, with Planet X leading the way around the Yellow Gulf Harbour Mark
The wind strength and direction proved to keep crews on their toes with several boats putting in and shaking out reefs at various times around the course
Memphis Toronui and Fastlane enjoyed some close racing at times with Memphis prevailing in the end.
Line honours went to Planet X.
Podium, Shine On 1st
Fastlane 2nd
Synergy 3 3rd
Well done to Keith and the crew of Shine on who took out 1st on the series with consistently good places throughout.
Second on the series was Toronui with Synergy 3 taking third
All in all a successful series with 3 races out of the scheduled 4 sailed
