Winning Appliances JJ Giltinan International 2011 Race 3 produced the classic 20 knot North Easterly with all the anticipated drama and action ......

Plus we have another heat winner, Andy Budgen, Dan Wilsdon and Matt Wark had to stay focused as Gotta Luv It 7 challenged Hyde Sails GBR for the lead only to capsize in a gybe.

The racing was really tight on the first beat to the Beashel Bouy with extremly close approaches and the rounding by the bunched fleet of skiffs.

Smeg had a handy lead half way through but also capsized in a second run gybe to hand the lead to Hyde Sails.
Pick the Podium for Race 3 was won by Rob Sangster.
