After two days of frustration, on day three the racing finally got underway for the RORC Red Funnel Easter Challenge... and it was worth the wait. For Paul & Marie-Claude Heys, racing the J/92s Jack Sparrow, it was a perfect day as they won both races by a comfortable margin to win in IRC 3 Class. “I thought we had a great mix of racing today,” commented Paul. “The first race was all about spotting the big wind shift early on and then trying to keep in clear air amongst a compressed fleet, especially out of the bad air from larger boats. Race two, we managed to get a good start and due to a round the cans course, we managed to stay in clean air for most of the way around. All in all, a great day’s sailing!” This annual Easter weekend regatta is the first on the RORC 2008 calendar. Complete results at http://www.rorc.org.
