                    [Summary] => SUBIC Bay – A big afternoon windshift enabled Karakoa to grab the lead after two more races Thursday in the 11th President’s Cup Regatta.


Karakoa, with helmsman Steve Benjamin’s guidance, made it to the finish line in the Open Division’s fourth race — an eight-nautical mile windward-leeward course, in one hour, 18 minutes and 22 seconds.


Ray Ordoveza’s crew made it just as the 18-knot westerly winds coming from Grande Island’s direction died down and an easterly breeze from the beaches of Barreto started picking up.
