Scary Legs, skippered by Graeme L returned to thw water with a convincing win on Wednesday. Second place, Dreamagic, skippered by Alan with third plzce going to Summertime Blues, skippered by Tony. Again a sunny day with good breeze provided for an eventful race for 8 yachts.
Dream Magic skippered by Alan weaves its magic and takes out line honours on a beautiful sunny day for WAGS. Second place went to Nassaja, skippered by Jeff follwed by Summertime Blues, qskippered by Adrian. The best battle of the race was between Volare and Now or Never, where the lead swapped several times.
Berocca Daze took the honors in a steady breeze. Skippered by Mickey Ink, she skillfully worked her way through the fleet to just cross the line before Lakotoi, unfortunately who missed a mark. Second place went Gray Whale, followed by Now or Never.
