Thirteen 5.5 Metres lined up for the 2020 Australian Nationals at the Royal Prince Alfred YC, including several crews staying over from the recent World Championship.
Ku-Ring-Gai (John Bacon, Cameron Miles & Dave Sampson) dominated the first day with a 1,1,2 while moist other boats had a fairly inconsistent day.
Two races were completed on the second day before the boats headed back to the dock as the breeze shut down ahead of a forecasted southerly change which was due in at approx 5pm.
Ku-Ring-Gai continued to hold the lead over the Macphail brothers on Black Magic with Martin Cross and team onboard Beta Crucis in third place, who had the best score of the day.
Beta Crucis also had the best of the final day in a light to moderate southerly with a 1,1,2 but could not reel in Ku-Ring-Gai who remained the most consistent in the fleet to take the overall win. Beta Crucis took second with Black Magic third.
