this is it the dice have been thrown and a champion has emerged as the 2010 National Irish IOM Champion. So who is it and how did he get there ?
well in
3rd place Andrew Crosbie RCYC 40 pts
2nd place Gilbert Louis HYC 34 pts
1st place John Morehead RCYC 24 pts
After Gilbert won this title for 3 years, John has managed to successfully defend his title and win the title for the second year. Well done to John.
The races were typically a windward - leeward layout with a offset mark to avoid collisions at the weather mark. At times some of the marks were not easy to gage based on the angle of approach but who said the national championship had to be easy. It made for interesting racing.
