Racing at the Royal Ocean Racing Club Vice Admiral’s Cup concluded on Sunday 21 May after a second superb day of racing in The Solent. The northeasterly breeze wicked up to 20 knots at times, but was once again variable in speed, giving a complexity to the one-design and IRC-rated action. Three races were held for all classes on the final day, completing the six-race series. J/111 Class: Going into the last day, Tony & Sally Mack’s McFly held a two-point lead after three races from Louise Makin and Chris Jones’ JourneyMaker II. McFly continued their winning ways taking Race 4 by just 28 seconds, then there was a JourneyMaker comeback. JourneyMaker crossed the line first in Race 5 by just 3 seconds, but after racing, JourneyMaker II was protested by McFly and disqualified. JourneyMaker II won the final race by 18 seconds. After six races, McFly was the winner of the J/111 Class from JourneyMaker II. While the battle for the J/111 victory was fierce, so was the battle for the final podium position. Paul Griffith’s Jagerbomb held off a spirited challenge from Cornel Riklin’s Jitterbug to finish third by a single point. The Prize Giving for the RORC Vice Admiral’s Cup was held on The Terrace at the RORC Cowes Clubhouse with RORC Racing Manager Steve Cole joined by RORC Commodore James Neville to award prizes. “Many thanks to the hard-working race team and the Clubhouse staff for their contribution to a successful Vice Admiral’s Cup,” commented Steve Cole. “Above all, thank you to the boat owners and competitors for racing with the RORC; we have had some exciting racing and we hope that you have enjoyed the hospitality at the Cowes Clubhouse.” Results link https://sailracehq.com/results
