2009 Nordic Championships - Day 2 - Musto Race Day
CRACKERJACK MAINTAINS HER LEAD - JUST!

Conditions were even better on Saturday when the fleet managed four races in the Musto Race Day series, within the main championships. The wind drifted between East & Southeast Force 4 - 5 and enabled the race team to set a variety of courses along the Meon shore using a mixture of laid and racing marks.

The overnight leaders, Stuart Watson & Matthew Jones, opened up with two wins and looked to have the edge on the rest of the fleet. Bob Allen helming 'Fritha' was unlucky to lose a spreader towards the end of the first race and had to retire from the championships. Edward Donald helming 'Madelaine' had had a mixed bag of results and it wasn't until the final beat of the 2nd race that he found his upwind speed. He then won the third race ahead of Ado Jardine helming 'Tak'. Ado had been sailing very consistently all day and added a fourth 2nd place in the final race behind Brain Appleyard's 'Nordic Bear'.

At the Musto Race Day prize giving at the Royal Southern in the evening this consistency was enough to give Ado the top prize for the four of today's races. Second prize went to Stuart & Matthew and Brian Appleyard took the 3rd prize. The championship concludes on Sunday with a single longer race. The event has also been sponsored by Sanders Sails & Rooster Sailing.
