GBR Match Race Girls

Big day

Thursday 12th August, 2010

Big day for us today at the Skandia Sail for Gold regatta, we started our quarter finals against Anna Tunnicliffe’s team (USA) and after a couple of penalties and very shifty conditions we finished 2–0 down but were also given a 3/4 point deduction for a collision. This would mean we would have to win 4 races rather than three tomorrow to win our quarters.

However after a session in the protest room this evening, the damage that our point deduction was given for was proven not to be as a result of our incident, and so the 3/4 point penalty has been reversed.

So we need three straight wins tomorrow to go through to the semis… bring it on!
