Officials from the South of Perth Yacht club would have breathed a sigh of relief as a westerly breeze filtered across the Swan River at about noon, rising to between eight and 10 knots initially and strengthening to 12 knots or so by the end of the day.
The difference in performance from yesterday’s light breeze was obvious, with all yachts foiling freely throughout the day’s races. It was also notable that the heavier sailors, who were seriously disadvantaged in the light conditions experienced in the first three races, were more than competitive today.
Derwent Sailing Squadron’s Robert Gough slipped to second place on the leader board, but would be happy with his consistency for his total of 16 points. He now sits 10 points clear of British sailor Ed Chapman with Royal Perth Yacht Club’s Steve Thomas now in fourth place overall, sharing that spot with Victorian Andrew McDougall.
