Sailing this year’s Main Duck Island Course in IRC 2 Class was Leszek Siek’s J/35 JAEGER from Port Credit YC, they managed to pull off a 4th overall.
In the PHRF 1 Class, Murray Gainer’s J/109 LIVELY absolutely crushed their colleagues in the largest class in the event and took first overall by a substantial margin! Fellow classmate, Graham Toms’ J/120 THE CAT CAME BACK, sailed a well-earned 4th in class.
Finally, in the PHRF 3 class, Bonnie Rieb’s J/33 DAYBREAK from Toronto took 3rd! They were followed by two J/105s- Geoff Clarke’s CASUAL ELEGANCE in 6th place and Tom Accardo’s SOTTOVENTO taking 8th position.
This year, the LO300 racers had to share their waters with the sailing events of the Toronto 2015 Pan Am Games that will be taking place in the Toronto Inner Harbour and just south of the Toronto Islands in July. As a result, the LO300 organizers adjusted the initial part of the course, removing Gibraltar as a mark and adding a mark offshore, southeast of the start, to be left to port.
