Points Races Round 01

Thank you to Lisa Engelbrecht and Claire Tucak for timekeeping and Bella Alcorn for water safety. Conditions were quite challenging and only two buoys were able to be set correctly, the third coming off in the shorebreak, dragging the anchor off the rescue board and end up too close to shore! Thanks to John Henderson and Andrew Engelbrecht for retrieving the buoys and anchors. No Board Race was held given the conditions and the buoys (or lack thereof!).
