Winners are grinners at 22nd SMU-RM Western Circuit
By AsianYachting MultiMedia
August 24th 2019, Raffles Marina, Singapore: During the week a skippers consensus was taken, on extending the number of races beyond the advertised schedule, resulted in sticking to the original program but the remaining IRC A & B, PY and Multihull class races, were extended to include another 16nm passage race, outside of the Western Johor Strait, along the Tuas Port reclamation area and back. Although most the classes have run away leaders, it didn’t stop the others having a go at them, while settling the remaining podium places and earning bragging rights for another year. A 10 to 12 knot Southerly breeze, with a sunny but hazy outlook, set the stage for the high noon showdown and proceeded along at a fast clip, to draw the curtain on the 22nd edition, in grand style.
