What a fantastic days sailing we had for the 3rd and final round of the state slalom series.

Located in the third and furthest channel at East inlet, the flat water and 18 knots of wind created an ideal setting for some serious sailing.
The one drawback we had was the current ripping out with the tide. This caused the buoys to have to be relocated several times to keep the course at an appropriated length.

About a dozen sailors battled it out at each start to try and get the edge and place themselves in that prestigious pole position coming into the first turn. Time after time James Brient showed blistering acceleration to streak ahead of the pack.

All up 6 races were held with plenty of time left for freesailing on the low tide.

A relaxed Barbeque in the evening topped of an awesome day. Perks even found time to celebrate his 2012 dominance of the GPSTC by ripping up the dance floor trophy in hand!
