Lionhead roars home to Lowestoft. Wettpunk.com second. Lionhead's navigation, running in calmer waters inshore, ensured they placed first today.

Boats in so far (in position) 22,81,7,333,111,96 Dag Pike navigator of Blue FPT described the conditions as "bloody awful!"

Just got back from Newcastle...went out in a boat but the harbour pilot was a pain in the a**e. He would not let us get close to the start. Considering we travelled 150 miles to watch was a disapointment to say the least.

However we stayed at the Royal Quays marina Saturday night & got close enough to the boats to get some good pics

Does anyone know what happened to Northern Spirit?...we heard some disturbing rumours
