With a pleasant 10-14 knots from the South East, the fleet left the beach, with the battle between Michael Thomson/Eddy Alder and Lauren Thredgold/Beth Fawcett to claim first overall in the final race remaining.
The fleet pushed the start hard with 3 boats recorded OCS, with only one of them restarting. Lauren/Beth showed they meant business by taking an early lead. They were followed closely by Thomo/Eddy who only had to finish near them to secure first. Lauren/Beth pulled away to win comfortably, but Thomo/Eddy held on to second and the overall championship win.
