Winter Match Racing Regatta a success
- Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club (Inc)
- Worsers Bay’s Nick Thyne with crew Jacob Jones (mainsheet), Willem van der Wilt (mid-bow) and Sandy McLachlan (bow) won the 2011 Wellington Winter Learn to Match Race regatta. A shifty 6-8kn of northerly breeze on Saturday in Wellington’s “Stadium of Sailing” was challenging for the eight competing crews from the Port Nicholson Yachting Trusts youth match racing programme. Each skipper used their pre-start manoeuvring skills to avoid coffin corner, and their match racing tactics, strategies and rules to drive home any advantage over their competition.
