Chittagong

The Chittagong was won by David & Rena Miller in Why with 4 races completed of the 5 race series. Two races were abandoned due to a lack of wind requiring the spare to be raced on Monday afternoon which decided the whole series. After taking into account one discard David & Rena won by one point from John and Val Davis - a splendid victory.
