Results for Metro Series heats 4 & 5

For the last Metro races of the year, the fleet was hosted by Royal Perth Yacht Club for an afternoon of windward/leeward racing. As has been the trend this season, the forecast was discarded and the fleet started in a gusty south-easterly. Elusive continued their strong form, and took the first race finish line ahead of Itinerant in second and Lionheart in third place. In the second race, The Black Smoke stayed on easterly side of course early and was rewarded. They were then hunted, with Elusive taking the lead on the last kite run and coming home first again. Itinerant was second and The Black Smoke finished third over the line.

Thanks to the start team, volunteers and RPYC for giving us a great afternoon racing and something different from our usual round-the-bay courses.

Results for Metro Series heat 3

Heat 3 of the Metro series was sailed out of South of Perth Yacht Club, starting near Como. The fleet marched into the bay with tacking, crossing and ducking changing around the early lead. Elusive got a good run downwind, establishing a decent gap back to the pursuing fleet. The course took us around Coffee Point to an early look at the finishing line buoy, some more upwind to Robbins, and then a final spinnaker run to actually cross the line.

Elusive came home first and fastest, with an impressive 4 minute lead over the second placed Itinerant! Eufarria was second on handicap, and Lionheart third.

Well done to everyone, and thanks to SoPYC for hosting us!
