What a fantastic day for the ANZAC Trophy Races! The weather was perfect with a gentle 5-10 kt easterly breeze, flat water, and bright sunny skies. We ran 3 races on a 2-lap windward/leeward course, keeping everyone on their toes.

Thanks to Tom and Graeme on the start boat, and Bill and Chris handling the tow, rescue, and coaching duties — your support made today’s racing smooth and safe. Neil and Darryl on Ffunnily Enuff were unstoppable, taking home 3 wins from 3 starts, but the competition was fierce and close all day.

Now, we gear up for a bit of a breather before the grand finale of the summer season — the Excelsior Cup on May 17. Mark your calendars and get ready for more great racing!

Thanks to everyone who made today a success and see you on the water soon

We hope you had a great Easter.
