Mojito missed the first race of the Global Displays (originally planned as a four race coastal series in Pwllheli, but the first Welsh race cancelled, as was the first on the Irish
side due weather.), by taking part in the Irish coastal series sponsored by Viking marine. all the talk was of Mojito potentially winning the coastal series on both sides of the water. Had they compromised their lead in the Viking Marine series on the Irish side by being in Pwllheli?... As results came in from both sides of the Irish Sea it was evident that Mojito had brought back some Irish luck that weekend, and by a fluke of events and results, they had won the Viking Marine series overall without doing the last race. But with no discards on the Welsh side, they had to settle for 3rd overall in Pwllheli despite taking top spot in the last two races.
Jackknife had done enough to win the Global Displays Welsh Coastal series, with a 1st, 2nd and a 3rd, meaning that they retained the Midland Punch bowl. Jac Y Do took second overall and 1st class 2 with Mojito frst class 1In time honoured tradition, the bowl was filled by the two coastal series winning skippers with vodka & tequila sunrises and the party continued well into the early hours.
