Puerto Galera Yacht Club's Easter Regatta drew in 18 yachts for a race dominated by variable wind conditions. Hyde Sails had been tasked with producing a fast spinnaker for yacht Anthea.

Anthea is PGYC's newly acquired Flagship owned by John Quirk. She is a vintage 1929 8-metre (8mR) owned by John Quirk. She took first place in the cruising class on day 2 and 3, skippered by PGYC elder statesman Russ Hughes, with Peter Stevens and Viggo Lison.
