23rd Spi-Ouest Regatta at La Trinite-sur-Mer - Day Three
Author: Mark Jardine
The wind arrived in La Trinite today for the 500 strong fleet with a NNW breeze that built throughout the day into a strong wind by then end of racing.
The smaller one-designs had an excellent first race on a well set course. In the J/24s Stouche helmed by Stuart Jardine took both wins with David Ellis second creating a 'winner takes all' last race.
Two of the 7.5 dayboats lost their rigs today in the second race with one hitting the leeward end start boat and another going downwind.
The race committee held the racers out in the bay for a while, tempted to hold a third race to make up for the race lost on the first day. They soon realised that racing would have gone on well into the evening if they had.
