We had over 40 competitors register for the event.
15 kts of wind and waist high waves.

We split the crew into groups of 6 and headed down to the starting point. Each group headed off for the 7km downwider - conditions were a little lighter but strengthened towards the end. After each group had voted on the top 2 riders we ran our final downwinder.
Results
1st Lucas Hearn
2n Troy Devine
3rd Tom McGregor

Thanks to all the crew who showed up.
It was great to see new faces.

We are planning to run some more of these over the Summer.
Heres a pic of Toy Devine tryng to get the judges attention.
