Perth International Cup

 

Immediately after the Perth International Regatta, 470 sailors took to the water again for the Perth International Cup. Attracting 29 teams from 12 countries, the idea was to have some racing just for the 470 fleet with prize money.

Both reigning World Champions were there, with Mat Belcher and Malcolm Page (AUS) and Lisa Westerhof and Lobke Berkhout (NED) giving the other teams a run for their money. 3 top level races were held in fantastic conditions – with the 470's literally flying across the water. The 19 men's teams and 10 women's teams sailed as one fleet, and although it was men's teams in the top three, a great performance from Jo Aleh and Olivia Powrie (NZL) who were the top placed women's team at #8, with seven top 10 deliveries in their scorline.

The prize money which was taken from part of the entry fee was awarded 1st = 50%, 2nd = 305, 3rd = 20%.
