Etchells Worlds 2009 - Registration Day

Some news from Reverie. 

Reverie was recently sent to Adelaide with Rosie Colahan and David James doing the delivery.  The Adelaide Lincoln yacht race was the first event on the 20th of February.  Secret Men’s Business won the race beating Skandia Wild Thing’s race record and winning on IRC.  Reverie came in second on IRC and True North was third.  The Lincoln Race Week started on Monday 23rd Feb.  Reverie has come out of the blocks well in the first two races of the regatta and thus far Reverie has a first and a second on IRC in the first two races.  Lets hope the rest of the regatta goes well but Port Lincoln can be a tricky place to sail.
