Hearne's Heroes Last week saw a fleet of fourteen yachts enjoy superb sailing conditions. It was a fleet start and the starting line was jam packed at the pin end, 'Clipper III' was first over the line in a well judged start. As the race progressed around course four 'Avanti' led the way to take line honours. 'Andalucia' was first on handicap followed by 'Avanti' then 'Vintage Burgundy'. This week will be a pursuit start, so don't forget to check your starting times! The forecast is looking good for a pleasant sail, especially for the lighter yachts. Bureau of Meteorology Forecast - Wednesday Northeast to south easterly winds of 5 to 10 knots. Afternoon sea breezes of around 10 knots. Waves less than half a metre. See you all out there. Ingénue Trophy The last race in the Ingénue Cruiser's PHD Trophy will be sailed this Saturday starting at 1005 hours straight after the Bushy Beavis IRC Race start. This series is an opportunity for yachts that do not have an IRC or AMS rating to compete in a series featuring longer, interesting courses using their PHD handicaps. Come and join the fun.
