Day Four

The forecast for today is for variable 5 knots becoming southerly 15 knots late morning then dying out in the evening. As we are writing this a 5 knot variable wind from the northeast is what we are seeing on the magnificent Wellington harbour.

Today should be interesting in the Open Full Rigs with Andrew Murdoch on 10 points closely followed by Andy Maloney on 11 and Jee Min Ha on 12. As Rutger van Schnaardenburg is also close on 15 points there is everything to play for today.

in the Open Radial Sara Winther has a battle on her hands to to fend off Logan Dunning Beck who had a great day yesterday with two firsts and two seconds. Then there is a bigger gap of 11 points back to Matthew Kempkers in third.

in the 4.7s Charlotte Corsten is having a great with her worst result being a lonely second and is the favourite in this class.

in the Full Rig Masters it is a case of age before beauty with Murry Thom enjoying a 5 point lead over Andrew Dellabarca with Rob Woodward 5 places further back.

then at the wise end of the fleet ex world champion Mark Orams is tied with Pete Thomas of Wakatere with Mike Keeton and Edmund Tam very close behind. This will be the class to watch today folks!

Updates today will be coming from the pin end boat so lets hope that end of the line is favoured. More soon....
