A-Class Australian Nats 2018: Day 2
Photo & data of the day by Gavin Rietman / Forward WIP Australia: “Very fickle breeze today for race 3 at the A Class Nationals. 3 laps in a dying NW breeze that was fighting the sea breeze. Glenn Ashby & Steven Brewin nearly lapped half the fleet.
Only 1 race today so we are now 3 races behind schedule”

In the video Gavin published, Brewin came back to the pin to restart the race. Dave Shaw from NZL had a great Worlds at Sopot and continues to perform among a top talented fleet in Australia. Dave holds 3rd place overall maintaining himself close to Brewin & Ashby plus a good gap with the rest of the fleet.

Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
