Cowes Classics: Round the Island results
When results of Cowes Classics' first day's racing, the BCYC Round the Island race on Monday, were posted, first-home Wings had slipped back to fifth in class, thanks to her handicap.
The course was actually split into two races - 1a from the start to St Catherine's Point and then 1b from St Catherine's to the finish off the RCYC line.
In the hotly contested Class Zero, after much discussion about who had and who had not sailed the correct course, victory in race 1a was awarded to Mariette with Tuiga second and The Lady Anne in third. The second race was won by Tuiga followed by The Lady Anne and Mariquita.
In Class Two, David Murrin's Cetewayo came first in both races, with Guy Ribadeau Dumas's 12 Metre Wings second in 1a and The Earl of Cork and Orrery & D Glasgow's Athena second in race 1b; Clive Emmerson's Lutine took third in both legs. Wings was rated fifth in 1b.
Class Three winner for race 1a was David Messum's Josephine ahead of Charm of Rhu owned by Martin Thomas with Cornelius van Rijckevorsel's Sensa taking third. In 1b, Tim Blackman's Infanta took first, with Sensa second and Josephine third.
Class Four race 1a was won by Roger Dann on Leonie with Lance Rowell's Dorothy in second and Alan Stannah's Sally of Kames third. Dorothy stepped up a gear to win race 1b ahead of Chris & Liz Day's Thendara second and Kees van der Klugt's Tiger C third.
