Fun Friday Winter Series - Race 3
Sadly no Andrew Arblaster Friday race report this week as he is swanning around Europe (like half the club!). However he left the tower in the very capable hands of Judy Champion and Dawn Clark - thanks for your race control ladies! And it was a busy afternoon... numbers are growing as people work out Friday arvos are a great time to be on the water. A total of 11 yachts raced with the results as follows:
| 1st | Lumiere | Ian Pearse |
| 2nd | 2Xtreme | Andrew Clark |
| 3rd | Vamonos | Fiona Jones |
