The 18s worlds have now completed 2 races and the Sail Media team have done a top job of the on the water action. I have nothing to do with Sail Media or any of the skiffs entered or Sydney Ferries.

Hope we never see another close cross of a skiff and a ferry as in the race 2 video from around 1.11.............my point being that no-one wants to see a collision between any small craft on the harbour with a ferry as there will only be one winner..............

There has apparently been a protest in todays race so I will be interested in what that was.............and the outcome. I didn't have access to the rules of racing for the titles but after a quick search found this link - which includes item 30 200m ferry bow clearance...........ouch........trust this isn't a problem as it seemed that the ferry turned the other way than expected..............
