Sailing: Dickinson & Tucker Win Comet Race
Club racing returned to the St. George’s Harbour in the Bermuda Comet Class as Stephen Dickinson and his crew Wesley Tucker sailed to victory.
The day started with a bit of a reunion as Dickinson and Tucker are previous Edward Cross Long Distance Race and Comet International Championship Champions.
The pair finished second to Maxwell Curtis and Stefan Furbert in the first race of the day, Curtis showed tremendous boat speed in race one as he was forced to do a turn after pushing Dale Brangman onto the first mark, but Curtis was able to sail through the fleet and finish first.
Race two saw Dickinson and Tucker work the boat and finish the race comfortably, Curtis finished second, with Gladwin Lambert and his crew Stefan Maybury in third.
The final race of the day saw Dickinson and Tucker once again take control of the race after getting around the mark just ahead of Scott Fox and his crew Joanna Santiago, Dickinson never looked back, Curtis finished second and Fox finished third.
