SOUTH QUEENSLAND EC12 CHAMPIONSHIP REPORT

 

The SQ EC12 Championship was hosted by the North Lakes One Metre Yacht Squadron Inc at Lake Eden North Lakes on Saturday 2nd June.

 

A total of seven entries were received and all generally conformed to the current Australian EC12 Rules. i.e. it looked like and EC12 and had a current measurement certificate.

 

Racing as usual for the class was conducted in a friendly manner with all infringements settled on the water. A total of 16 races were completed.

 

From the start it was expected that the favorites to contest the top honours would be Malcolm Kampe with his beautifully prepared Sorrenson Hull with SailsEtc sails and Yeoman Sands with a similar boat sporting Power Sails (NZ) and this proved to be the case with the lead changing and few points separating the two throughout the day. Malcolm had nine first placings but Yeoman kept in touch with very consistent sailing.

 

Others to stand out were Ian Gilmour, carrying Carr (US) sails with two wins and Ken Smith (Own Sails) after a slow start improved with a win and a number of good placings as the day went on. Andrew Sands (BG Sails) showed good boat speed but suffered with inconsistency and reliability.

 

Bruce Chapman sailing his first major regatta showed at times that he is coming to terms with sailing this class.

 

Overall a great day’s sailing with Malcolm coming out on top on 22 points from Yeoman (26) second and Ian Gilmour (47) third.

 

Officials for the day were Graeme Turk and Brian Lever.
