The Bay, at stumps last weekend, had claimed the first innings points in this two-day Shoalhaven District Cricket Association first grade match.
When the match continued on Saturday [December 12], the Bay continued to inflict pain on Nowra.
Nowra last weekend was rolled for just 58 runs and the Bay, at stumps last weekend, was 9-85.
Darcy Knight topped scored for the Bay with 33 runs and tailender Mick Smart was next best with 31 runs.
Peter King took five wickets for Nowra and Kealen Blattner picked up three.
Nowra, in the second innings, was thankful that Brad Field turned up to play.
Field belted 92 runs as Nowra put a triple-figure score on the board.
Nowra's second innings total of 142 runs was competitive at least.
Knight once again proved to be Nowra's nemesis and he picked up six wickets, while James Dickinson grabbed three.
The result, if the Bay was chasing a bigger total, could have been different as the home side just did enough to get the outright win.
The Bay's unconvincing 8/79 in the second innings got them the prized outright win.
Sam Lee top-scored for the Bay with 20 runs and Ryan Hall made 16 runs.
Matthew Junk and Blattner were the only two bowlers used by Nowra and they both took four wickets.
