raz88 96 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Fish I've been witness to those pesky Stewart's going a fair bit faster than 11 knots in the right conditions... And pahi is a quick one. That's a shame about squealer. Long way to have come to not finish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 343 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Pahi had such a great leg, well done to them. The poor tail enders will be pushing tide shortly, but at least with wind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 197 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Looks like Oracle got home with a tide assist. Ilex may have broken something - spent the night in the Marlborough sounds. Jet still not finished. Not sure why they are going so slow - Rigmarole sailed past them pretty rapidly last night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clipper 343 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Jeeze, what happened to jet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B00B00 310 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Jet broke the main halyard apparently. Pretty tough leg, mostly light winds for us and we missed out on the hammering the boats got yesterday afternoon. Lots of damage done around the fleet. Nothing for us luckily.

However the start is Sun 18:30, so hopefully they can all make it to Napier before the worst arrives. Looking light n Monday though.

aklsailor 1 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Something looks wrong in div 3 results, truxton 2nd on line? The finish times tell a different story Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 Truxton definitely second on line, I think they had Sunfast's time and ours back to front but it has been rectified now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Battleship 100 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Sounds like they are going to have a go at live streaming the start via ssanz Facebook page. Hope it works, but don't get grumpy if it doesn't pretty sure it's the first time they have tried this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkMT 68 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Good stuff for a first attempt at streaming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ScottiE 174 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Poor buggers - late start - slow going Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 511 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Yep, fun spurt out of the harbour but rest of the way is going to be testing once again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ScottiE 174 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 looks like the brreeze filled in at day break - RTII off at 13kts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 197 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Back of the fleet are all doing around 1 knot, front of the fleet 8+ knots! Blink are way back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ScottiE 174 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Front runners still trucking along at 10+ kts - RTII over 13kts for the last few hours. looking at metservice and PW there's reasonable brreeze all the way up to Kidnappers. Looking pretty light there at the moment but may fill in later this evening. RTII will probably do well out of this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Deep Purple 511 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Ouch, there's 2 different races here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
