Fresh conditions for MHYC Women’s Regatta

The MHYC Women’s Regatta was sailed in a fresh to strong north-easterly under sunny skies on Sunday.  Kathy Johnstone and the MHYC Race Management Team completed the full program of two sprint races followed by a longer passage race that doubled as Race 2 of the Sydney Harbour Women’s Keelboat Series. The stronger breezes tested the spinnaker work but provided some exciting racing.

It Happens (Nicole Savage Goddresse - CYCA) claimed the Overall win for Division 1 ahead of Sirius (Kate Leeson – MYC).  In Division 2 Overall, Alcamy (Ruth Lawrence – RANSA) to the win from Kaotic (Catherine Thornton-Rofe – MYC) and Silky (Eloise Clarke – RANSA).  Alcamy and Kaotic were first and second in the All Female sub-series pointscore, with Cool Runnings (Jade Tokarczyk – MHYC) third.  Best in the Female Helm sub-series were It Happens for Division 1 and Silky for Division 2.  Winners of the passage race and SHWKS Race 2 were Blink (Ashleigh Larkin – CYCA) in Div 1 and Alcamy (Ruth Lawrence – RANSA) in Div 2.

A big thankyou to Marg Fraser-Martin for all the images.
