Rob Bell's report as follows:
The race started at 14h00 with a light to medium wind switching constantly between an easterly to a gusty south easterly, once the yachts had rounded Mark No 2 with Joe and Tim in the lead Rob settled down on the run to No 4 with Mark closing the gap so by the time No4 was reached Rob and Mark were ahead on the reach to No 5, Mark and Rob had a close tussle and it was only just before the centre mark that Rob managed to pull ahead of Mark, but in the mean time ignoring the tussling pair Joe and Tim rounded the centre mark first, from then on it was a down wind race to No 6 with Rob laying the mark first.
The final beat saw the yachts close together finishing exactly 10seconds apart. Willie sailing alone in his Hunter came in fourth while a crew of Michael House boys who had not entered the race but sailed the course in a 420 came in just ahead of Willie sailing alone in his Hunter. Everyone felt that it was a great ending to the Von Klemperer Series.
