Geoff Boettcher’s Secret Mens Business wins 73rd Adelaide to Port Lincoln Yacht Race
CYCA Member Geoff Boettcher’s Secret Mens Business is the overall winner of the 73rd Adelaide to Port Lincoln Yacht Race.
Secret Mens Business was the first monohull over the line, finishing the 160 nautical mile race in 15 hours, 20 minutes and 18 seconds.
The five 52-footers led the way in the overall standings (IRC), with Secret Mens Business first, ahead of Zen (CYCA Member Gordon Ketelbey), Another Hooligan (Nicholas George), Smuggler (CYCA Member Seb Bohm) and Quest (CYCA Member Craig Neil).
“It was very close, the five TPs at Marion were so close to each other, there was nothing in it, really good racing,” Boettcher told Down Under Sail.
“We snuck around ahead of them and then it was dog-eat-dog, everyone had a turn at hitting the front.
“It was a bit of a tough one along Yorkes [Peninsula], but once we cut around the corner at Cape Spencer everything was a dream. It was nice and easy, good running, probably the easiest one I’ve done for many years.
“We know if we can stay with them [the other TPs] on the wind, we’re a downwind boat and once we get a kite up or in a configuration that suits us, we can pull away which we did and that’s where we broke away.”
CYCA Member Brett Averay’s Peterson 44 Bacardi won IRC Division 2 and was 10th overall.
Other handicap wins went to Zen (ORCAP Overall, ORCAP Division 1) and Bacardi (ORCAP Division 2, AMS Division 2).
The Adelaide to Port Lincoln Yacht Race was also the opening race of the Australian Yachting Championship, which is part of the Lincoln Week Regatta.
The regatta continues with six races from Monday 20 – Thursday 23 February.
