on Sunday to finish first in a 10-boat Laser fleet competing in a seven race (one throwout) series.

Heading into the last race, Wright trailed Ted Wood by a quarter of a point, but he was able to recover from a poor start, climb back through the fleet and win the race, so wrapping up the series.

Craig Davis was the only other sailor to win a race as he finished third overall. Sara Lane Adderley and Marin Vezini tied on points with Adderley finishing fourth by virtue of a third place in the final race. Racing continues off Spanish Point on Sundays at 12.00 noon until December 10.

A.J.Crane enjoyed a good day on the water in Sunday's Junior Optimist dinghy series which attracted a smaller than usual fleet of just six boats.

In light winds from the west, Crane finished on top for the day, moving within a quarter of a point of Alexander Lines, the current overall leader in the Optimist series.

John Paul Doughty recorded his first place finish in the series while Alexander Kirkland finished second overall for the day, also closing the gap on leader Lines. Lexi Macdonald showed improvement with a fourth place finish in one race.

Racing continues over two more Sundays. Those interested in taking part should call 292-3366 (ext 210). Entry is free and some boats are available.

Current standings: 1 Alexander Lines 41; 2 Alexandra Crane 41.25; 3 Alexander Kirkland 53.75; 4 Eric Deichmann 111; 5 Alexia Macdonald 144; 6 J.P. Doughty 132.75.
