Bryon Ehrhart’s TP52, Lucky finished the race at 14:46, to stake a claim to the overall title in the Rolex Middle Sea Race. Ian Moore, navigator said dockside. “That was a very tactical race, there was a big wind hole on the approach to Messina and we stuck to our game plan and managed not to get caught in the trap. At Stromboli we decided to go right in close and we managed to get through there. I would say that those were two key areas of the race but it was great to go nip and tuck with Pace.”
Lucky will have to wait to see if they win the overall prize of The Rolex Middle Sea Race Trophy. There are several yachts that can overhaul them, especially the Maltese local boat, J/122, Artie.
