Super Series goes to Braithwaite Team
There was plenty of heavy traffic at the top mark with some of seasons closest racing during Sundays three race super series. As the storm clouds approached the gusting seas breeze reached close to 20 knots the racing became intense and the margins for error minimal. The races were led by the two Taipan crews of Scott Machon/ Bryce Haffner and Mark/ Sophia Braithwaite. These two were relentlessly pursued by the A Class of Fabrice Boone. The A Class was most certainly at its design limit with the gusting winds and choppy lake conditions putting a huge stress in the super light weight boat's carbon mast. The Hobie 16 and NACRA boats maintained a three race battle to the end with the finishing results alternating throughout the series.
It was the Braithwaite Team on AUS283 who were narrow winners over the fast finishing Machon/Haffner Team of AUS163. The Braithwaite team have shown great form since the State titles and now prepare for the National Titles in QLD during the New Year.
