F18 Aus: Great Lakes SC Wildcat Regatta 2017: Brewin & Giri 1st
All images by Great Lakes Sailing Club , fulle gallery at their Fb page. Another win for the Scorpion & Brewin DS Sail combo. This time with Steve Brewin & Amy Giri. Past week was Gavin Colby-Daltonn racing the same conf to beat former Aus Nats Champs 16 & Vice 2017, Burvill-Duffield and this weekend Brewin & Amy Giri finished ahead the 2017 Aus Champs, Daniel & Nathan van Kerckhoff.
> Still the Edge and C2 need to be fitted with DS sail to make a 1 to 1 comparison, but once more Brewin boomless DS sail is proving to be working really good against tpo notch Aussie crews/equipment, and the Scorpion is responding & grabbing more wins.
Coming Australian Nats are going to be the real tests for DS sails if Burvill & the van Kerckhoff sail with DS too. Here in Arg we will have some good tests with different DS in coming months.
