**Vadym turned a 4.0s start delay into a 1.37s photo finish win—by ripping the opening upwind in 44.0s and putting Randypix in chase mode from the gun.** On a short 0.27 nm triangle, that early +5.9s gain was the decisive moment, and it held up all the way to 2:44.90.

Randypix did plenty right early, with the best start timing in the fleet (0.6s delay) and a higher max speed than the winner (12.9 kts to 12.2). But this was a time trial where the clock punishes extra work: on the first upwind, Randypix needed 2 tacks and sailed a bit more distance, and Vadym’s cleaner 44.0s opener set the tone. Randypix clawed back later—most notably on the beat to the finish, taking 3.6s back (51.6s vs 55.2s)—yet the earlier damage plus small losses on both reaching legs (a combined 2.3s) left them just short at the line.

Behind the headline duel, Redkingryan made it back-to-back podiums after yesterday’s top three, landing 3rd in 2:46.45 despite a 3.7s start delay—serious pace for a new VR sailor who only joined in Oct 2026. Tdancer324 slotted into 4th at 2:49.25, while Tony—yesterday’s winner—couldn’t repeat the magic today, finishing 6th (2:54.72) even with the fastest max speed of the race at 13.3 kts, a reminder that in a triangle time trial, the full run of leg times decides everything.

At the other end, league newcomer Don kept pushing through a tough first outing: the raw speed is there (12.9 kts max), but the clock showed where the big time went—late start timing (6.2s delay) and a costly beat to the finish with significant extra distance. Tightening start timing and sharpening that final beat are the clear targets, and with those cleaned up, the next run around Sydney should drop fast.
