Megan and John sailing on Wallbanger in the Sunday 11 October pursuit race. Wallbanger is a Simonis 35 moored at the Algoa Bay Yacht Club. A pursuit race allows the slower boats to leave before the faster. The aim is to get the boats to the finish line all at more or less the same time, making for great sailing.
Wallbanger recently competed in the Durban to Port Elizabeth Vasco Da Gama Ocean Race and was the smallest boat in the fleet (35 foot) with the smallest crew (of four) that sailed the smallest distance.
