Sundowner Sailing

06/10/2025

Great weekend of yachting
Opening day on Saturday, with a gentle 10 knots, blue skies
Channel race on Sunday, with winds up to 40 knots, 2 reefs and J3 for a lot of the sail. Came away with an overall win 🍻
Thanks to Michael Hutchinson for the beautiful new sails
Looking forward to sailing season, long race series and 2 Capes

Thanks DSS for another great Launceston to Hobart Yacht Race. Crew work during the race was sublime, lots of switching positions to preserve stamina. Unfortunately the blue main sail decided it would become 2 mainsail off Shooten island, but on the bright side we have lots of material for gear bags now.
3rd IRC overall 🏆
