The 2024 Sealink Magnetic Island Race Week concluded this morning as conditions dictated there would be no further racing – winners were declared based on overnight pointscores.
Unlike some other race weeks, it was a matter of too much breeze rather than lack.
Principal Race Officer, Denis Thompson advised competitors: “After consideration of everything we know and even though the breeze has dropped a little, the forecast by midday shows the wind will be back up to 30kts. All the weather models align, so the decision is, no racing today.”
Those divisions that contested five races, SeaLink Spinnaker Division 1 and Sports Boats, had a drop factored into their final scores, while the remaining divisions were scored on all four races sailed.
Congratulations to the five CYCA entries, especially Gordon Ketelbey’s crew of the TP52 Zen which won Spinnaker Division 1.
