It was the Sanga's of Steve Sedgmen & Ben Taylor that came out on top at the NSW 10R Grand Prix Round 2 held at Koonawarra Bay on 27th April 2019.

Several course changes were made before the light breeze settled enough to commence racing. 14 sailors competed in what started out as VERY flukey conditions. The wind shifts were huge and frequent. 4 races were conducted before the lunch break was taken early, in the hope that the breeze would come in and settle.

After the lunch break, the breeze settled in fairly constantly from the east south east at 5-6 knots which allowed 10 races to be conducted in the afternoon.

Close competitive sailing led to many changes in the race placings.
