PCC Winter Sunday Series 2011 - Sunday 22 May

An excellent line up for the first race of the PCC Winter Series 18 entries (and only one missed the start due to rigging problems)

Gorgeous, sunny day with a light Southerly breeze of around 8 knots.

The Fleet lined up for a very close start and were across the line with only meters separating them.

Higher Ground had an incredibly good race, she lead the fleet on every leg (that we could see from the tower), with Urban Cowboy, chasing her up.

With a bit more breeze in races to come, they will get some excellent competitive racing in this series.

Our special thanks to Sharpie at The Floating Dock for their very generous support of this series.

TWO fabulous Spot Prizes for every race - A Floating Dock Lift & Clean Voucher ! ( this could give you the winning edge.)

Congratulations to:
