 Difficult conditions were experienced by all sailors on Saturday with strong outgoing currents and lots of floating debris from the recent heavy rains.

Great starts were the order of the day and all the kids have shown massive improvement in this area since the summer series started. Many a battle was evident as the sailors chase valuable points as the summer series draws to a close with sibling rivalry alive and well between Jessica and Hunter Vercoe with Florian Poff hot on their heels and Tom Du Toit showing good form in the Sabots class.

Battling for 3rd overall in the Vagabond class in this series is Ricky Morelli and Sam Safe with Ricky and crew getting 2 good starts and winning both races and Blake Thomasson and Damian Profke showing great skills in the Laser Radial Class to snatch one race each. Gareth Hunt also showed guts and determination to mix it with the more experienced sailors in the Laser 4.7 class (photos courtesy: Jayden Allen)

Next race day is 18th April - sign on at 12.30pm
