2018 Peroni Aus 16 Foot Skiff Championships Race 6 Big Pressure and Carnage

Race 6 was ground hog day with exactly the same conditions. Those who chose the left side of the course again it paid, those who were forced right were in a world of pain. Again the 13ths showed a clean pair of heals with ‘Mighty Mite’ upstaging many of the 16’s with just raw uphill speed and with the downhill angle in their favour the young bucks showed the old bulls how to make the best of the gusty conditions. Bottom line, as the results show, and as Mike McMahon the official ‘results officer’ dissected the spreadsheet, there is a 3 way split for the title Sutech, Manly Surf n Slide and the ever lurking Brydens. In the 13’s its Mighty-Mite leads pursued by Bartley Constructions and Bigfoot – again it will be the final race that will produce the champion. With 40 plus degrees in temperature predicted for the day the heat will be well and truly in the kitchen.
