The big race absolutely went off today in perfect conditions!
The breeze was a solid 18 - 22 all the way and I believe there were 179 starters so the fleet was massive.
First across the line was Pete Volwater of Netherlands on a 6.8, followed by world top five sailor Patrick Diethelm. In third place Chris Lockwood on a 7.5 KA Koncept became the first Aussie, ahead of 3 time winner Dan Engdahl.
Big congrats to Chris who scored his best result in the event, ahead of class sailors like Dan, Scott McKercher & Jesper Orth.

I've never seen them post results in the 16 years I've been in WA. Seems they are too spent organising it so once it's over that's it. I find it puzzling but....
Last few years Novak has been putting results up on the windsurfingwa site. Usually after a few days. Good idea of Ado's on the stories. Very interesting for those that were not there.
I made a few phone calls and was told that all the organising and the results are done by the Lancelin Chamber of Commerce. I rang them and they are just checking and finalising the results and they will be released "tonight" - so maybe tomorrow. The bloke at the Lancelin Telecentre said it will be posted on the www.oceanclassic.org web site and "a few other places" - I mentioned seabreeze to him so they may even post them here as well.
