Just spoke with Ben Hall. One race sailed to finish the series with 8 races. Glenn Ashby won on the water with Steve Brewin in 3rd so Glenn and Steve finish 1-2 overall. I'd have to believe Jack Benson hung on for third overall as he had a decent point cushion over 4th. Final results should be posted in a couple of hours.

For the US, Randy Smyth finished 9th overall which is fantastic considering he was using a charter boat. Randy has been working hard this winter and spring and he has shown exceptional speed in light air which this regatta served up well for him. We should all be very proud of his finish.

The Aussies will be drinking a lot of beer tonight!

Next major North American A-Class event is the North American Championship at North Cape Yacht Club in mid-September. We are hoping to top our 42 boat fleet size last year and Sailing Anarchy is planning another On the Water Anarchy coverage for this event. All the guns of the US class should be in attendance.
