Nemesis Double Handed St Croix Results

19 December 2017

The Nemesis St Croix Double Handed was sailed on Sunday 17 December 2017 in near perfect weather on an almost soldiers course. A South East wind greeted the six yachts contesting the Nemeis Double Handed, a low sea mist hid the islands from yachts exiting to the bay from a harbour start. Most contestants made St Croix in a single tack, St Croix to port and then the chase back in a rising wind that peaked at around 17 knots. Three welcome additions to the fleet were Proteus, with Chris Cox at the helm; Zula, sailing her last hurrah with Rod and Jimmy - Rod left this morning for Brazil; . . .
