With a 4-3 score card after the first round robin, Freshie Racing are off to a sound start at the 2009
Harken International Youth, at Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club, in Newport Sydney, but must sail
consistently in the next round to cement a spot in the semi finals.
The crew of Pete Nicholas, Nick Brownie, Tom Lovelady and Nadia Punselie sailed well in this
morning’s light winds, winning their first three races, but as the wind increased the team struggled a
little bit with a 1-3 record after lunch.
William Tiller and his team from RNZYS are 7-0 after the round robin and have done well in the
heavy Forces 24 yachts.
The race committee have done a good job in getting through a full round robin on the first day in
this double round robin format, with 8 teams and 3 more days sailing.
Joining the line up is RPAYC youth sailors Jason Waterhouse and Michael McCormick who earlier this
year won the ISAF youth worlds Hobie division.
