Clearly this A spectator ferry will follow all the racing, leaving Double Bay Public Wharf, alongside the clubhouse and rigging area, at 2pm.

Herman Winning looks like a good each way bet. Wouldn't want to bet against Smeg though.

Two recent articles on crew's for this season's 18's.
Do normal people sail these things with sponsorship? both the articles has photos where you could see the silver spoon hanging out of their mouth's :) |

Breezy race today, plus last Sunday race is well worth a view, especially the last alp.
Fun racing in the legends races from Friday, some old names in that fleet! |

Great footage there ... Keep thinking, he's gonna have to put that kite away ... But still they carry on!
There's a great film here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=G9PJRcUVzMo 18 footers in the days just before it went crazy, then went (relatively) sensible again. Quite a lot of info in Bethwaite's "high performance sailing" about the build up to Entrad and the resolution into B18s that followed. Never mind the Americas cup, this is the real top end of sailing. |
