The RS800 Rooster National Tour visited Stokes Bay SC where despite a pessimistic forecast, the fleet enjoyed a Southerly sea breeze and some close racing.
Luke and Emma McEwen won the day with their beautifully consistent scoreline of 4,3,1 (discarding a 4th) to jump in front of Paul and Peter Jenkins through countback.
Not forgetting third placed Joseph and Ben Bradley.
After a fiercely competitive day of racing, and with three different boats copping race wins the top three all finished on 4 points net.
Huge credit and gratitude goes to Stokes Bay SC for kindly hosting the event, especially during the current climate.
Attention now moves to the Salcombe Gin Summer Regatta down in Torbados on the 26-27 June, at the Royal Torbay YC.
