Tauranga takes out the inaugural Boat Race between Cambridge and Tauranga. This proves sailors are faster than rowers. This had nothing to do with the fact that we were assisted by our very own Commadore in command of the fleet. Thanks Dale for stepping up for the occassion ! |
The results were close as you can see
Club | 04 July | 11 July | 18 July | TOTAL | Rank |
Cambridge | 90.5 | 99.4 | 86.4 | 276.3 | 2 |
Tauranga | 91.4 | 99.3 | 88.7 | 279.4 | 1 |
Points awarded for ranking of each pair on X-Club. All results are based on the X-Club for that day, because both clubs play the same boards. Click on the date above for the overall placings in X-Club
Points are awarded for each session, by averaging the placings of all Cambridge pairs into one group and all the Tauranga pairs into another group. The club with the best average over 3 sessions will win the Club trophy, kindly donated by Michael Neels (pictured below)
