Second in Ireland

After an action packed final day with many close races and plenty of penalty’s thrown around the team only finished with 2 losses to finish second. Only going down in a very close race to the French team and losing the opening race against the local Andy Fowler. Another top result was beating Black Swan racing with Kieth Swinton and his Wakka racing crew.

This is our third podium finish in consecutive events of our European tour. The team is full of confidence as we head to France next week for the grade one event. This is a great opportunity to race against the best in the world including current leader of the world match racing tour Mathieu Richard.

An interesting feature to this regatta is the GPS tracking which each race been uploaded on TackTracker where you can re-watch all the weekends racing.
