Over the weekend of Saturday, 7th December 2024 and Sunday, 8th December 2024, the South of Perth Yacht Club hosted the 2024 Viper 640 Championships.

On Saturday, 7th December 2024, there was some incredibly close racing that saw You Get in the Bowl from South of Perth Yacht Club equal with Hero from Royal Perth Yacht Club. The rest of the fleet was all within striking distance and were still able to strike for podium finishes, as well as the title.

On Sunday, 8th December 2024, it was neck-and-neck throughout the day at the top, whilst the mid-fleet also kept pressing throughout the race.

Final Results:
3rd: ‘Hero’ (RPYC) – 17pts – Scott Glaskin, Tony Johnson, Grant Rollerson
2nd: ‘Hissing in the Wind’ (SoPYC) – 15.5pts – Brett Sharpe, Rob Senior, Stephen Oliver
1st: ‘You Get in the Bowl’ (SoPYC) – 14pts – Rob Beurteaux, Jon Stubbs, Simon Wilder

Well done to all participants.

The South of Perth Yacht Club would like to thank all volunteers and staff for helping make the Viper State Championships run as smoothly as possible.
