Martin Ryan Skipper of Mercedes III comments: Kingurra leads at the first mark, closely followed by Pastime
ll, and both continue on Starboard downwind. Mercedes lll fails to lay the first mark with a slight knock with 20
metres to go. She tacks onto port crossing ahead of Fairwinds and tacking back above her; Fairwinds rounds a

boat length ahead. It is here that the race is won. Fairwinds gybes onto port and quickly flies the spinnaker.
