2024 Gulf Triangle


Recommended Posts

was a great event last year  - pity conditions meant we didn't make it to the barrier, but an awesome event from the RYC... would definitely bring the boat back down if it wasn't for that dirty four letter word starting with 'w'

I think this was originally a single handed event, but you can now do it 2 handed?

Westhaven, Marsden point, Great Barrier, Westhaven. Like doing a SSANZ series in one weekend!   😄

Correct.

2 divisions, single or double. 

Not accounting for any amputees racing I guess you could say a 2 handed and a 4 handed class 😉

Doing this next weekend on the 930, entries looking a bit bleak - is it a lack of promotion or an abundance of lethargy?

Maybe a 3rd division for full crew would attract a few more boats ? . Lethargy seems to be in abundance , fleets are slowly shrinking year on year , triple series seems to be the exception though .

When changing from A3 to Masthead Kite after Sail Rock I left front hatch open to ventilate the boat as it was champagne sailing. However; after several beers and another 10 or so kts of breeze it would appear it wasn't the best move!
