Day 4 VW Print 420 National Championships - Lyle Tresadern, Napier Yacht Club
The VW Print 420 National title goes to Paul Snow-Hansen and Jason Saunders
After winning races 9 and 10 Snow-Hansen / Saunders
effectively wrapped up the title without having to sail the last race.
Lardies and Drummond sailed consistently during the day to secure 2nd
place overall by one point over first female youth sailors Maloney and
Babaich-Bacher who were equal on points with the first male youth
sailors Dunning-Beck and Goodwin, but claiming 3rd on count back with
one extra win on their scorecard.
RACE 9
After
waiting for the sea breeze to arrive the first race of the day got
underway with a clear start in a building 8-12 knot breeze. At the
first mark it was a Napier Sailing Club benefit with Mackay and Broome
leading and Mannering and Weeks 2nd however this was not to last as
Snow-Hansen and Lardies took over with Tauranga sailors Stevenson and
Bullock in close attendance.
Positions stayed the same through to
the finish with Snow-Hansen claiming his fourth win of the regatta and
Lardies coming second to retain second overall. Stevenson and Bullock
held onto 3rd from a fast finishing Maloney.
RACE 10
Snow-Hansen
stamped his authority on the regatta by clearing out with a lead of
over one minute at times. The wind held steady at 10- 12 knots from the
North East direction. Dunning-Beck and Goodwin steadily improved during
the race to claim second with the ever consistent Lardies and Drummond
in 3rd.
RACE 11
With
Snow-Hansen and Saunders already claiming the title they went into
cruise mode for the last race which then left Lardies and Drummond,
Maloney and Babaich-Bacher and Dunning-Beck and Goodwin all fighting
for the minor places. Maloney after a titanic struggle with
Dunning-Beck just held on for the win to claim 3rd overall while
Lardies finished 9th and dropped this race which still gave him a one
point margin to claim second overall. Dunning-Beck and Goodwin ended up
fourth on count back with Cooke and Illingworth fifth after fading in
the lighter conditions.
Snow-Hansen and Saunders were clear
winners with a 12 point margin. This is their second title but both
with different crews in previous contests.
