Met & Southern Ranking Sat 22nd Sept- Results
The 1st day saw beautiful weather and a shifty wind for the 28 skippers who lined up.
The fleet was split into 2 heats which allowed PRO John Henderson and his team to give the skippers 8 races during the day.
Brad Gibson continued his fine form of 2012 with a clear victory from Rob Walsh and Darin Ballington, however a quick look at the scores will show just how close it was behind Brad.
The skippers have now retired to their various hotels and bars to prepare for tomorrows racing. The forecast is for wind and rain, plenty of both!
