Lake Charm Recap! (a little late, sorry 😅)

On March 21st, Secco Racing competed at the Smith Family Racing Archer Eade Memorial, hosted by our home club, the .

The boys raced in both the 1800cc Australian Championship and F4, putting together a strong day on the water.

The first race kicked off with Heat 1 of the 1800cc Australian Championship, where Max and Jackson battled hard for the podium. Max finished 3rd, with Jackson close behind in 4th.

Next up was the first F4 race with a dock start. Jackson (Pole 2) got a great start, took the lead early, and held it to bring home the win with Max in 2nd.

In the final 1800cc Championship race, the competition stayed tight, but Max stepped it up to finish 2nd, with Jackson in 3rd.

The last F4 race featured a reverse grid start, with Max in Pole 2 and Jackson in Pole 3. All boats were evenly matched, creating an awesome battle with everyone running side-by-side through the corners and down the straights. Jackson made a mid-race move to pass both boats at once and take the win, with Max finishing strong in 2nd.

Overall, a great day of racing for the team:
🥉 Max – 3rd overall in the 1800cc Australian Championship
🥇 Jackson – 1st overall in F4

A massive thank you to the VOC for hosting and to all the volunteers who made the event possible.

Next up: Yarrawonga (April 17–19), one of the biggest events of the season. See you there!

As always, a big thanks to our sponsors:
