This Week in Yachting – 5th Dec 2024
TWO HANDED YACHT RACE
Ideal conditions showed up on the Broadwater for a competitive fleet of 15 in this year’s Evolution Sails Two Handed Race on the weekend. El Smoko was well out in front of the fleet for much of the race but rudder damage, most likely caused by an unwelcome sandbank greeting saw them retire just before finishing. Overall PHS win on corrected time was won by skipper Ella Small on Mister Bojangles, followed by Quarterflash and Wild Huntress. Congratulations to all competitors. Full Results here
