Some sun and light winds made for great race conditions, with a little bit of a bump and some groundswell coming back from Pa Point. The distance was 9.7km (Mana to Pa Point and back). Again an excellent turn-out and it’s good to see two junior crews battling it out, a close finish.
Note that the third race of the series will be on Saturday 2 July instead of the Sunday 3 July as originally posted. See you at the next event, rain or shine.
