The Onboard Beachport X-perience - Lake Results

For those that weren't there...
Day 1
We were presented with light winds on Sunday, the first day of the event and the format was the average 2s peak of the 2 days. Only times recorded after the breifing were to count and since there was only one person who got planing(the organiser) it was decided to make only Sundays peak 2s count.

Day 2
Sunday had a reasonable forecast and we ended getting a full day of wind 13-18 with the occasional 20+ gust. A few sailors were left short on gear selection while waiting (still) for their 2011 gear to arrive which made the competition all the more interesting!

" left short on gear selection or Talent ?

Instead of making excuses how about recognising what a great sailor Sam is!
Looking at the GPSTC link most guys were on 2010 gear and sails ranging from 6.2 through to 8m+, Sam was using 2006 slalom board and 2008 6.2 and was still 2-3 knots faster than anyone in those light wind conditions, just goes to prove you cant buy talent, well done Sam!
