F18 North Americans 2015: Day 3
Photos & Video: Charlotte Harbor Regatta FB – Sarah Newberry & Matthew Whitehead in full control of the regatta at the moment with 6 bullets out of 8 races. Olivier Pilon & Maxime Loiselle are now in 2nd place one point ahead John Casey-Colin Page and Mike Easton-Tripp Burd.
The Canadians are showing how the Hobie Wildcat remains a top performer, as seen past week here in Buenos Aires, and Booth father & son demonstrated at Kiel 2015 Worlds.
You just need some hours onboard to control the boat in the high breeze like Olivier & Maxime are doing at this 2015 North Americans.
