Newcastle Harbour steeled for keelboat action

Ichi Ban on top as TP52s go toe-to-toe in SailFest Newcastle

TP52 Gold Cup at SailFest Newcastle © Salty Dingo It was a rare sight indeed to see eight top-flight TP52s going toe-to-toe on a start line, but ultimately a familiar name topped the IRC leader board on Day 1 of the TP52 Gold Cup at Newcastle SailFest Regatta. Matt Allen s Ichi Ban claimed two of the three windward-leeward races contested off Newcastle s Merewether Beach as the harbour city turned on a fluky and fluctuating south-westerly breeze. Those results were contrasted, however, by a sixth placing in Race 2. It was a mixed bag out there and I don t think any boat strung three great races together, Allen said. In the middle race the breeze started shifting then just died on us. Otherwise the conditions were really good, and it s certainly the best fleet of TPs that I ve seen together in Australia.
