Hi everyone

I've been a bit quiet lately but it would be good if a few Moths can come up for the marathon. BYRA has been missing the Moths lately and we'd love to see you back. I'll be out there watching your backs from the rescue boat. Hope to see y'all on Sunday

Seabreeze suggests that the wind was good for a pretty quick marathon.

Hope there were lots of moths there.

Only one moth for the marathon but I was already on the water so I didn't get a chance to speak to him. It was carnage everywhere. Most boats spoke of a good pitchpole or crash during the day and only probably 10 finishers from maybe 35 odd boats. We didn't send them around the island but had an inside course that most boats pulled out of after the first work back to Claireville.

Pretty sure the 13's were the fastest around the track. They really got a good jump at the start and were gone.
