5.5 METRE RESULTS.
In the two-day regatta that finished on Sat 1 May, VYC entries featured prominently in the results. In six races held over two weekends with fickle winds mainly from the west, the entrants had to contend with all the usual Harbour traffic, 20 to 30 degree wind shifts, and choppy conditions stirred up by pleasure boats and the larger than average spectator fleet.

The VYC was represented by Baragoola, Antares, Yeoman IV, Jabiru and Kings Cross. The last mentioned being Mark Lutowski's recent purchase.

Results for the two divisions:
EVOLUTION DIVISION:
Scratch:- Skagerak (G.lngate) 1st ; Antares (M.Polkinghorn) 2nd; Rhapsody (C. Ryan) 3rd.

CLASSIC DIVISION:
Scratch:- Barragoola (D.DeCoster) 1st ; Pam (D. McDonald) 2nd ; Jabiru (H. Ferrar) 3rd.
Handicap:- Kings Cross (M.Lutoski) 1st tied with Yeoman IV (R. DeCoster).

Keep your eyes open for more boats in the club's 5.5 fleet!
