Audi China Coast Regatta 2014 - Day one

by RHKYC Media on 10 Oct 2014
China Coast Regatta 2014 RHKYC/Guy Nowell http://www.guynowell.com/
Race Officer Inge Strompf-Jepsen was out on the water early this morning to check out conditions for the first day of Audi China Coast Regatta.

With the IRC Racer divisions looking forward to a windward-leeward course followed by an islands course and IRC Premier, Cruising and HKPN scheduled to venture around a long islands course, Strompf-Jepsen elected to get racing underway on schedule, starting the Premier, Cruiser and HKPN fleets ahead of the racers to avoid any late afternoon softening of the wind.


The wind gods were not especially generous, giving an 8-10kt breeze ranging from 000° to 060°, however the Premier boats were able to complete a 20nm course taking in TCS2, Waglan, Beaufort and Stanley before finishing 2.5 hours later at Round Island, with X55 Xena taking first place on corrected time along with a bullet on the water. The Cruisers and HKPN fleet completed a similar but shorter course of 17nm, taking over three hours to reach the finish, with Hanse 400 Darling correcting out to a first place in HKPN and Lady Butterfly taking the Cruiser honours.

Meanwhile, the IRC Racers completed their first windward-leeward of the competition with IRC 0 completing three laps of a 1.2nm course and the other divisions completing two laps of a shorter 0.9nm course. In Racer 0, Team Beau Geste took the gun just half a minute ahead of FreeFire, with Sam Chan’s boat taking first on corrected time, while in Racer 1, Island Fling took the bullet and first on corrected time ahead of Electra. In Racer 2, Mojito took the gun, only for Talking Head to take first on IRC.


As soon as practicable, the RO set the courses and the start sequence for the final islands courses of the day, resulting in a first bullet for Jelik and a handicap win for Team Beau Geste. In Racer 1, Island Fling crossed the line first but was pipped to IRC first by EFG Bank Mandrake 3 and in Racer 2, Rampage claimed a win on the water and on handicap.

Tomorrow will be a busy day for the IRC Racers with three races including a geometric, a windward leeward and an islands course, while the Premier, Cruiser and HKPN fleets take on a geometric and an islands race.
