Results for Metro Series heat 6
On the 8th of February, the fleet returned to Royal Perth Yacht Club for heat six of the Metro Series, held as the Max Hayes Memorial trophy.
Despite the forecast predictions for a consistent south-westerly, the winds during the race were quite variable, with small irregular shifts keeping the fleet on their toes. Apparently the 9.2s were a little too keen to get going, with the start boat issuing a general recall. The re-start went smoothly though, Elusive and Farrlap making an early break and staying out in front of the fleet for the remainder of the race.
