Day 3 at the North Sound @MaxiRegatta introduced something new: Triple Head Sunday, a time trial-style race where each team picked their perfect moment to send it down a 1.4-mile reaching course. With the pressure on to go as fast as possible, strategy and timing were everything. North Sails-powered Balthasar came out on top on corrected time. “That was a nice bonus,” said North Sails expert and project manager Bouwe Bekking. But beyond the result, it was the unique format and full-team effort that made the day memorable. “It was a big day for us,” said Bekking. “We had the owner's wives and friends onboard, which was really special. I’d say they were our lucky charm. We nailed the timing, had good pressure in the first run, and got our triple-head configuration dialed in.” Sailing at 20–22 knots with three headsails flying—a jib, genoa staysail, and a smaller sail on the bowsprit—Balthasar showed what the team (and the sails) could do when everything clicks. Triple Head Sunday delivered exactly what this week is all about: good breeze, clever racing formats, and a whole lot of fun—on and off the water. More breeze, more racing, and more stories to come from the North Sound. #NorthSails #MaxiRegatta #BitterEndYachtClub #NorthSound #VirginGorda  🎥 Vertigo Films | Maxi Regatta

Hunter Impala 28 "Jiminy Cricket" win the joint start to the 2022 Bar Buoy Race. They hit the line with speed and held off the leading IRC 1 yachts for the first stretch of the race. With the main back winding as the apparent wind increase and moved forward as the tide took hold and pushed them out towards the Bar Buoy at speed. Strangford Sailing Club once again did a great job kicking off the annual narrows series with a great race out and back into the narrows. Jimminy Cricket GBR 9507 went on to finish 6th in the IRC2 fleet.
