F18 Australian Nats 2016: Day 2
I contacted Darren Flanagan and he reports high winds (20knots) and Carnage for Day 2 plus protests have been submitted for all races of the day. They will update results on the event website and their facebook page when available. Pics from Day 2 at the Nats fb page.
Update: jpg with results posted at facebook.com/AustF18Cat/p . Top Ten below.Brett Burvill leads with his own built Windrush Edge, Daniel van Kerckhoff (C2) in second place and Steve Brewin (Exploder) currently in 3rd. Great performance by Brett and the Edge, he has been sailing Tornado mainly and showing no problems racing the F18 again. I hope a container from Australia can travel to BA and for him to bring the Edge along to race.

I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
