splashprincess 17 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 M1 first across the line, then Akatea being chased down very quickly by Karma Police - she is smoking! A tight reach for all to get across the line, all with at least one reef in. Pepe last across the line. Link to post Share on other sites
splashprincess 17 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Sorry - Zindabar is last across the line. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Akatea was the first to put her main up, with a single reef in, and promptly did two BIG round ups. M1 decided 2 reefs was a good idea... that was as I was picking my car up from the wharf at 4.3opm. Home now... Akaea first across Evans Bay pursued by Karma Police (who risk being disqualified, as they were no actually sailing on the water, they were flying at low altitude) then M1. A few pics from Khandallah... Akatea... Karma Polica and M1... Then the rest of the fleet part 1... Link to post Share on other sites

splashprincess 17 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 We had issues getting Physical Favours out of their berth, so she is yet to start. They are out there at the moment getting sails up. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Crazy little buggers. I hope they get away with it. So impressed by them on leg 2, maybe they're getting through on sheer youthful bloody mindedness and an ounce of luck. Amy idea as to whether Tony and Vesna will start?
