Brian just continued to extend the lead he established on the first day, to finish on 55 points, with Roger Paul on 81 in second place. Warren Norrie was always at the pointy end finishing just a few points behind Roger on 90 points.
The inaugural Australian Champion in the Masters Division is Denton Roberts who won three heats and looked a real contender to bag a multi-division win.
Conditions were almost identical for both days with well defined shifts there for the taking for the keen skippers. Late on day two the larger rigs had a few craft dipping the front half in the lake.
The excitement continues tomorrow with Day 1 of the Ten Raters.
