| After a controversial
morning before today’s Race 7 of the Winning Appliances
JJ Giltinan 18ft Skiff Championship, the Gotta Love It
7 crew of Seve Jarvin, Sam Newton and Scott Babbage
put it all behind them to take out the championship with
an impressive win on Sydney Harbour. |

Gotta Love
It 7 was disqualified after yesterday’s Race
6 win and was looking to be a conceding series leader to Thurlow
Fisher Lawyers, with Michael Coxon, Aaron Links and
Trent Barnabas three points ahead going into the last race.
For Gotta Love It 7 to win the championship, they
not only needed to win the race but also hope that Thurlow
Fisher Lawyers would not finish within the top three.
The final points for the championship were tied when Gotta
Love It 7 won today’s race by 27 seconds from
a gallant Rag & Famish Hotel, sailed by Jack
Macartney, Tom Clout and Drewe Waller; while Thurlow
Fisher Lawyers finished fifth. Gotta Love It 7 took
the title on count back with three wins against Thurlow’s two. |

Grant Rollerson, with his SLAM team of Anthony Young
and Peter Nicholson were seventh today, but their consistency
over the seven race regatta was enough to get them third
place overall with 27 points. SLAM was ahead of Red
Claw Wines with Matthew Searle, Archie Massey and Mike
McKenzie with 28; CST Composites sailed by US champion
Howie Hamlin, Fritz Lanzinger and Paul Allen with 29; and Yandoo’s John
Winning, Andrew Hay and Dave Gibson completing the series
in sixth place with 35 points. |

| With a building
north east breeze, the rig decision within the fleet was
split between the bigger a number 1 rig and a number 2. The
crucial contest between Gotta Love It 7 and Thurlow
Fisher Lawyers was included in the split, with Gotta
Love It 7 making the correct choice with a number 2
rig, when the wind freshened up to around 18 to 20 knots. |

and his Rag & Famish Hotel crew gave a great
display to lead for most of the race, only to be run down
by the championship winners on the final windward leg. While
Jack Macartney is an Australian 18ft Skiff champion as crew
with Micah Lane, this is his first season as skipper and
the team has been a big improver over the season. |

| Today’s
race which was sponsored by Red Claw Wines attracted a large
spectator fleet onto the harbor, including at least three
ferries full of supporters as well as hundred of power boats
and yachts of all sizes. It was a spectacular finish to a
closely contested championship which has been viewed throughout
the world following the introduction of Live Tracking for
the first time. |

| Protest Hearing
Result. |
| By Frank Quealey,
the Australian 18 Footers League. |
|
| Edited by Peter
Andrews. |
| Sunday, March 13, 2011. |
|
A protest by
Michael Coxon, skipper of Thurlow Fisher Lawyers against
Seve Jarvin’s Gotta Love It 7 has been upheld
and consequently, Gotta Love It 7 has been disqualified
from Race 6. Seve Jarvin is considering an appeal so at this
stage, all points are provisional pending an appeal.
The leading six points scorers now (after discard) are:
10 - Thurlow Fisher Lawyers
13 - Gotta Love It 7
20 - Slam
23 - CST Composites
24 - Red Claw Wines
25 - Smeg
To simplify the overall championship position, if Gotta Love It 7 wins
today’s race, then Thurlow Fisher Lawyers will have to finish
third or better to win the title. If the both teams finish level on points
(after a Gotta Love It 7 win in Race 7) then Gotta Love It
7 would win on a count back with three wins ahead of Thurlow Fisher
Lawyers’ two wins.
Replays of the live tracking of each race from the 2011 JJ Giltinan 18ft
Skiff Championship will be available from: http://www.tractrac.com/index.php?page=eventpage&id=138.
