A down wind start, it was twice around the tower. John Martini had the best position at the start, but Delirium (5 young ladies) showed her colors first, (spin) and led the way to the first three marks. The final upwind leg toke the toll on the two lead boats and Slippery managed to squeak in for a win. Painted Lady, Pat Claytor did a great job for a fourth place. Panacea and Triumph enjoyed the best part of the setting Sun.
