No wind/wrong direction combined with a 3-4 meter swell resulted in a two laps out and back course change for Race1 of the Smartline Fenn Cup Downwind series for 2010. The start/finish and re-entry into Fisherman's Beach was always going to be interesting with the large swell and shore break.
The race turned into another Cotter/Allen battle and an interesting run up the finish chute. Also in the mix was Ironman Legend Zane Holmes and Ironwoman Krystyl Smith.
