funlovincriminal 163 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 I tend to just have a quick peek in the mirror, my handicaps are immediately evident 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 197 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Looks like there is a brand new Elliott doing the race - Liquid Luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A.B 2 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 The canter Kaizen thrashed everyone last year since they could cant it to leeward in the light airs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well we can - but we didn’t. We wick up pretty quick and there isn’t a lot of wetted surface in the hull form. We can fully retract the cannard, and the keel fin is very narrow - so anything lower than a full beat we are very low drag without and need for a lifting surface. From memory it was a A1.5 start into a 0/ reach for quite a while and at that wind speed and angle we can better than windspeed Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A.B 2 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 There was a lot of retirees last year.

waikiore 399 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 What time is the start? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rather a lot of near-drifting boats with kites up as we went over the bridge this morning. Some drifting backwards with the tide, from the look of it... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ex Elly 197 Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Good 18 knot souwester now. The multis are at Kawau, and most boats are past Tiri. Looks like Liquid Luck and Pipi are leading the monos. Tracker here https://forecast.predictwind.com/tracking/race/ryc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brendong 5 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 "Rocky" and "Motorboat" assuming they're SR26's are doing well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrWatson 375 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I heard liquid luck weighs less than a 6 pack of Heineken. anyone got some specs on that build? Length, beam, dips etc? Pipi, single handed, came in a touch after liquid luck. Second mono over the line. Great effort for single handed! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve 34 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Would have been a bit quicker 2 up Jon but no way we’d catch that Elliott weapon. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
