Round the Island Race 2010

 

The 2010 race managed to avoid the nasty August weather and started in pleasant sunshine with 11 starters and a stiff SW breeze. Tides were most unhelpful and the gambles included whether to try and do it at high slack and also whether to do the Cut Bridge or St Olaves first.

In the end, 3 boats (Henriette, Anna and Pandora 3) started between 0930 and 1000 and the rest remained firmly attached until 1400 hrs. It mattered not as the master move was made by Modwena, who decided in a true, properly cowards way, to get St Olaves Bridge out the way first This proved a huge advantage and the old girl romped home to win by over 14 minutes on handicap and was second fastest over the water.

Second overall was Puck who managed to finish rather close to the cut off time and Beth was third overall.
Beth also took the Round the Island Trophy for fastest over the water. The Somerleyton Jubilee Cup was taken by Puck and the Anne Trophy was lifted by Beth. Full results are below.
