Default A fountain wins cowes-torquay race

All the fountain guys should like that.

first was a Fountain
2nd a Dragon
4th Warpath Had some electrical issues on first leg
5th Dry martini 35 mistress ran by I believe a OSO member or friend of OSO member
Their was also a 38 Formula that was third or fourth on the first leg

Congrats to all. The water was fairly flat which i guess is usual a pretty rough water race. Congrats to all.
When i see official final results with speed i will post them up.

Marathon is not classed by HP, but by total VOLUME (in Liters), and that includes a 1.4x uplift for blowers.

Going Lean is in A-Class, meaning his total volume exceeds 18liters; what are Merc's smallest blower motors? Is the 525 supercharged?

Yeah it was a calm day - everybody held together. The 'usual' CTC is 1/3 or 1/4 finishers.
