BMW Auckland Regatta - First Half Report



by Barry Davies

Winds gusting over 30 knots tested the competitors in the opening day of the BMW Auckland Regatta Friday and saw one of the hot favourites in the open multihull division capsize.

Frantic Drift, skippered by Olympic sailor Dan Slater with Nathan Handley and two up-and-coming Olympic class sailors Blair Tuke and Peter Burling on board was flipped coming into the finish of the opening race.

The yacht ended upside down in the water. With help from two umpire boats, Frantic Drift was righted again. Nobody was injured and the yacht was soon under tow back to Westhaven.

“Conditions were certainly testing,” said regatta director Ross Markwick of the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron. “The sailors had their hands full in gusty conditions, but we saw some outstanding displays of seamanship.”

Racing comprised a course from Northern Leading to Eastern Beach, followed by windward leewards.

Sixty yachts in nine divisions are competing in the regatta, which finishes on Sunday.
