Nemesis Double-handed Race 2 – Sunday 16 October

With just two boats on the start line, the course from the harbour was around Bellbuoy and the Safe Water Mark and back to the harbour. Malgas were quick off the start, rounding the breakwater to unfurl their asymmetrical and they were off.

With the South West freshening and the gusts becoming fiercer, their asymmetrical over-powered them causing some serious broaching. Walbanger had a re-think on launching her spinnaker and settled for a near-planing run to the Bell Buoy.

During the beat from the Safe Water Mark the boats experienced wind gusts of up to 40kts, Malgas had already reefed but still experienced regular knock downs.

All in all the boats and their crews enjoyed a very high adrenalin outing. On corrected times, Wallbanger (1h35m) very narrowly beat Malgas (1h37m).
