Congratulations to Emoyeni (Superseal 26) for coming first in Division 8C and 18th overall in ISCRS in the Round the Island Race this weekend.

Interesting that out of the top 6 boats in Division 8C there were 3 Superseal 26s (Emoyeni, Calypso and Knave) and a Parker 27 (Pied Piper). Also in Division 8B Fra (Superseal 26) was 3rd.

Jon, Thank you for your comment. It was a great day out with perfect "Seal" weather of smooth seas and not too challenging winds. I enjoyed the duelling with the other Seals, especially "Calypso"!

My wife was tracking all the Seals from home with the on-line tracking link and said how exciting it was to see how close we all were for most of the race.

It was a very good days sailing and very satisfying duelling against you and other seals. I lost it between Bembridge and Ryde for about half an hour or so I just couldn’t get much boat speed, not sure what I was doing wrong but that’s sailing.

My wife was also following the tracking and said it was almost as exciting as watching the Americas Cup.
