The day kicked off with the three Bics and a Pacer and Sabre on the water with some trainees getting more experience.

With the pennants on the line a good fleet of boats faced the starter in a steady SSE breeze of around 10-12 knots with some gusts to 15 knots.

Pennant 11 got away at 13:12 with a fleet of five NS14s three Sabres two B14s and a Cat and it was a good even start with most of the fleet right up on the line.

By the top mark Phantom was clear ahead with Serenity next ahead of Bang Bang and in the Sabres on the inner course it was About Time just clear of Sweet Disposition with Lauren Keil back at the club.

The boats slowly spread as the race continued with Phantom well clear in front three minutes ahead of Bang Bang and Serenity another three minutes back but two minutes ahead of Sundaze.

In the Sabres Sweet Disposition took the lead and had a 58 second lead over Times Up.
