A moderate south to southwest breeze sent the fleet of at hull speed tight reaching towards North Head. Lucky (USA 2872) made a great sight as she tightened her huge headsail and galloped past the TP52’s.

Wired got a great start and showed a ton of speed off the line.

Beautiful conditions for the fleet and plenty of sun to show off the colourful spinnakers and gennakers as they headed off into the distance.
