The team went up another gear today, winning all six races. This was due to great team work and communication which enabled us to adjust our approach to suit the varying conditions.

We finished the round robin series in first place followed by Josh Junior (Wellington Spirit), William Tiller (Full Metal Jacket) and Tim Coltman (Wellington Youth) respectively. Finishing atop has earned us the right to choose our opponent for the semi finals. We have decided to take on Tim Coltman and his team which leaves Tiller and Junior to fight it out in the other semi final. So it’s all on tomorrow as the winning team will receive an invitation to one of nine World Tour events this year.

Black Sheep Racing would like to say a special thanks to SLAM New Zealand for their great sailing apparel and the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron for their continued support.

Black Sheep Racing is Reuben Corbett, Tom Bentham, Brad Farrand, Tom Blampied and Benny Butcher.
