2026 GP Season started with the 1st event at Grahamstown Dam, 19 Yacht single fleet racing on what was very trying conditions in the morning and a reasonable full breeze settling in the afternoon. 35 Degree heat took its toll on skippers and boats alike.
The Orca was again fast however an early electrical gremlin and damage after being taken out whilst in a clear 2nd spot hurt the overall result. The skipper also seemed to like collecting penalties throughout the day which was not helpful, he needs to do better.
