The 2004
Canadian Wayfarer Nationals |
John Cawthorne
and David Weatherston ... ... |
... follow Mike
and Kirk around the right-hand gate mark. ... |
Perhaps
recalling the fact that the left side seemed to pay up
the first beat, Paul has tacked away from Doug, Nick, John and Kit who have just rounded the left-hand gate mark behind him. ... |
Roger doesn't
even wait that long! ... |
Now only Kit
remains on port towards the right side of the beat. ... |
Still a bit of
rustiness showing as Saw Dust begins her
second beat. ... |
That's
better! ... |
It's a lonely
life at the top as Heider Funck and Tom Wharton win
their second straight race. ... |
But it's too
little, too late for Heider and Tom, as Al Schönborn
and Marc Bennett (pole too far aft!!) ... ... |
... finish 2nd
and clinch the series. The 1992 Mike Mac spare is
beginning to show its age but the new one is being saved for the Worlds! ... |
Mark and Paul
Taylor follow in 3rd place while ... ... |
... Hans
Gottschling and Pedro Santos take 4th - their best
finish of this series. ... |
Another solid
5th for the de Boers, John and Dolores, while ... ... |
... Peter and
Annelies have dropped a couple of boats but still
matched their series' best placing with a 6th. ... |
7th for John
and David. Note that the foot of their spi should not
touch the forestay: the sheet and/or the guy (windward sheet) should be eased. ... |
Eclairelle,
the Conestoga express with Dwight Aplevich and Al
Nichols, rolls in 8th ... ... |
... ahead of
Conestoga clubmates, Paul and Alan Laderoute, and ... ... |
... TSCC's Mike
Codd with Kirk Iredale. ... |
Roger and
Joanne's 11th was their worst result of the series. ... |
Kit and Ann's
12th becomes an OCS. ... |
A freshly
bathed and capsized Doug and Roger cross in 13th. |
