A-Class Australian Nats: Day 1


Photo by Humpybong Commodore Matthew Johnson, Training Race
Bundock and Landenberger on a good start. Dean Barker? well a 6th and a 4th, sadly Spithill wasn´t able to race. Ashby went overboard and Brewin had a BFD, some courtesy handicap for the rest by these two top A sailors. This is an A-Class Worlds type championship, remember Australia dominated at Cesenatico.

Report Race 1 and 2 by Bob Griffits at DNA Website: dnacat.blogspot.com

Twitter by Darren Bundock, he is tied in 1st place right now with Landy, but he will be “Ok” after dialing downwind…. : “Just saw the notice board and Steve Brewin BFD in race 2 so moved to 2nd in race 2 & equal 1st overall.”
“First 2 races completed in a nice 12-15knt ESE breeze. I just need to learn how to sail this thing down wind & I will go ok.”
