Seven hardy skippers braved the brass monkey weather from the cold South with east thrown in .

Top end of A rigs to start the afternoon with lot's of gusts and moderating as the day goes on.

Very much mixed fortunes alround under the conditions.

In fact Round the world RTW races were sailed in vary lite and flute airs.

Winner's 501 Rob , 997 Clive,  168 Nigel. Great sailing fellows.

Foot note, 137 John no long required a handicap advantage with the superb starts he was achieving.

Merv still coming to terms with his controller but receiving plenty of help with sorting out his 2nd hand yacht ,but still did well all the same.
