Results for The Marlborough Sounds Marinas Spring Twilight 2024 (Race 05.11.24)

Raining but light winds, anything between 1 knt and around 6 knts and for some lucky few a puff of 10 knts, but a great sail, fair amount for ferry traffic. There was a great social atmosphere back at the club with BBQ sausage and live music!
