2017 NZ Optimist Nationals

The 2017 Kiwi Opti Nationals were held at Napier Sailing Club over the Easter break. The weather just prior to the regatta was a bit challenging to say the least, with Cyclone Cook bringing torrential rain and ferocious wind gusts of up to 70 knots (no that’s not a typo!) as it passed through Napier on the day before the racing began.
