Stack Winter Champs O'pen Bic report

The Open Bic fleet had some fantastic racing held off Murrays Bay Sailing Club over the long weekend with six races completed over Friday and Saturday, then Sunday was called off.  Race Officers made a good decision calling racing off due to a combination of extreme rain, thunder, too much wind, then no wind at all.

The standard of this fleet is going from strength to strength with on the water coaching by Russell Coutts, Hayden Whitburn & Geoff Dawson. Jack Pye from Keri Keri took out the series overall on countback from Sam Cornfoot of Ravensbourne Boating club, followed closely by Matthew Rist from Manly Sailing Club who had a big win in race three.

Most improved award going to Blake Dawson winning race 5. Imogen Herbert first female.

Special thanks to Murrays Bay Sailing Club for running a great regatta and to the NZL Sailing team for their inspiration to sailors.

Next event is at Manly Sailing club Saturday 15th of October if you're keen to do this we have charter boats available for this. Click here for the details.
