Committee and Captains reach consensus on the outcome of Anguilla Day Boat Race

June 02, 2007: DJ Ritchie, the public relations officer for the Anguilla Boat Race committee appeared on HBR radio on June 1st to announce a "consensus' solution to the outcome of the race held one day earlier.

According to his comments:

Boats who abandoned the race before it was officially called off will be awarded the participatory prizes, as their decision was fully understandable given the unfavourable sailing conditions.  Our unofficial list includes Miss Anguilla, Stinger, Eagle, Blue Bird and UFO.


Boats  who abandoned the race after the decision was made will share an undisclosed but satisfactory prize. Our unofficial list includes, The Satellite, De Chan, NWO, Real Deal and Sonic.  The Lady Maude was also included in this group despite finishing the race primarily because of its trailing position overall at the point the race was abandoned.

Boats who completed the race will be awarded the positions in the following order based on their leads and positions irrespective of the decision made to bring the race to a premature end.

The decision was apparently made by the committee in agreement with boat captains in a heated but respectful meeting.

As we say in Anguilla...."We Love Boat Racing.. Dis is our Ting"

1st - The Super Star
2nd - De Tree
3rd - Light & Peace
