Mungerannie & Cowarie Stations 3-8 April 2016
Regatta Report, Results and Presentation Night
The Club's 5th Regatta was our first warm weather Regatta with 17 yachts, 45 adults and 2 children attending.
Weather varied from 35 - 25 degrees and winds from calm to strong.
For the first time the water was warm although the 600mm depth provided a new challenge for many participants having to manufacture shoal draft rudders.
A record 6 deadly serious races were held being from one to three laps depending on wind conditions.
The second Rear Admiral's Mug race was held on the last day following a trial sternchaser.
