Tight Racing on Week 4 of the Frosties

Week 4 of the season ending Frosties Regatta at Strangford Lough Yacht once again say some tight racing in the IRC 1 class. The crews were greated with with 8 to 12 knots of breeze from North West which increase to 20 in the rain squalls.

The J109 Going To Red and the A35 Le Bascular continued there matching racing series to see who would take the title of Frosties Champion 2023.

The team on J109 GTR lead early but were run down on the first run to be just behind the A35 at the leeward mark. A tight rounding on the J109 couple with some issue getting the kite down allowed GTR to snatch the lead back.

After stretching out a good lead on the second beat GTR looked to have a comfortable run home until they tangled with Attica and Atalante, the team recovered to lead around the bottom mark.

After some debate the team decide it was best to do some turn incase they had infringe before beating up into the oncoming rain squall.

The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you liked this video and it encourages you to want watch more. It you like the Time Lapse format be sure to let us know in the comments so we know to make more of these race reviews.
