The O’Regan, Salter and Minihan combination on Gemini captured the overall trophy yesterday in the Frank Godsell sponsored March League 2010 at Kinsale Yacht Club writes John Cooley.
16 boats came to the start line and with all to play for in IRC, ECHO and White Sail OOD Tom O’Sullivan, assisted by Anthony O’Neill, sent the fleet off in a light but steady South Easterly. Our photo shows Bobby Nash, Cruiser Class Captain at KYC and winners Pat Salter and John O Regan of Gemini.
Clem & Wendy McElligott on Sea Hawk in their first outing this season, taking the opportunity to fine tune in preparation for the Spring Series, were convincing winners in both IRC and ECHO, with Carl Queen on Maximizer taking the final race in White Sail.
The overall March League title was taken by Gemini; with the trophy awarded to first overall in ECHO, they also won overall in IRC.
