The event is traditionally held on March 31, Freedom Day, but had to be suspended due to poor weather conditions. On Saturday, the regatta resumed with the remaining six races in the men’s events, which ultimately decided the final standings.
Senglea delivered a dominant performance, winning two Tal-Pass races and consistently finishing ahead of their closest rivals.
