A Wet Race Officer in the Mayflower

Race Three of the 2021 Valmadre Offshore Winter Series held out of Fremantle Sailing Club was run last weekend in relatively benign conditions. Only 16 of the 30 entries made it out onto the water for the 25NM race. Race Officer Cameron Berg and the Offshore Race Team had a tough decision with the prevailing shifty conditions. Settling on Course 5 the crews started in a very conservative manner with no one anywhere near the start line.
