RCN La Linea hosted the first race of the 2013 Inter club yacht racing series. This is the third year of the ever popular series, with a total entry of 40 yachts. A fresh westerly breeze in the Bay of Gibraltar, promised for a lively days racing. Shortly after mid day the 2 lap race of the windward/leeward course was started, with a constant 20 knots of breeze and gusts registering 30 knots. The crew onboard Seawolf enjoyed fast beats and faster spinnaker legs, often hitting 10 knots plus of B&G boat speed. On the final leg, 2 yachts, choosing to sail straight as opposed to sailing the faster VMG angles, both suffered broken spinnaker poles after chinese gybes in the stronger shifting gusts. Final results of RI2 where:
- Seawolf Pronavia 38
- Luna VI Beneteau 36.7
- Doncella Beach X35
The next race is in Ceuta on the 16th February, please contact us if you would like to join the winning crew on Seawolf
