Results for Metro Series heat 1
Kicking off the 2021-2022 sailing season, heat one of the Farr 9.2 Swan River Metro series had the fleet sailing out of Royal Perth Yacht Club, in a decent westerly. Unlike previous years, the heat was not held as part of the RPYC opening day events, but instead the following week – this meant for a longer race, with a number of upwind legs. Itinerant took an early lead, and managed to keep ahead over the finish line, with Lionheart winning first on handicap.
