Ecover Half Ton Classics Cup - Final Result
HYLAND/BIGGS CONFIRM SUPERIORITY AMONG HALF-TONNERS As if to underline their total dominance of the Ecover Half Ton Classics Cup sailed on Dublin Bay as part of the Volvo Dun Laoghaire Regatta, Tino Hyland, Nigel Biggs and their crew on ‘Henri-Lloyd Harmony’ duly notched up their ninth IRC win in nine races (and eighth on the water) to complete a very satisfactory week for the local boat from the Royal St.George Yacht Club with a massive margin of 30 points on the next boat. The battle for the IRC runners-up spot was eventually won by ‘Misjif’ (Houston/Angus, FYC) despite a poor last race result, yet finishing with 8 points to spare over third-placed ‘General Tapioca’ (Philippe Pilate, Royal Brussels YC) which produced steadily improving results as the championship progressed. On Scratch, ‘H-L H’ was almost as emphatic, with eight wins, to head the fleet ahead of Cornish entry ‘Per Elisa’ (Tregear/Pullen) and Pilate taking another bronze medal position. Overall Results: Scratch 1. Henri-Lloyd Harmony 2. Per Elisa 3. General Tapioca IRC 1. Henri-Lloyd Harmony 2. Misjif 3. General Tapioca Source: Graham Smith Full Story »
