The Farr 9.2 season opened in our usual style with heat 1 of the Swan River Metro series raced at Royal Perth Yacht Club. The familiar summer seabreeze conditions have yet to set in, so the fleet set off into a light north-westerly that drifted to a westerly over the afternoon.
The placings changed hands several times through the first several legs, however Farrlap made excellent ground on the run from Dee Road to Dolphin East, and maintained that lead to finish first… well done Kevin!
Seahawk was first on handicap… a great start to the season for (newish) Farr owners Pedro and Juan. Well done to all!
