B00B00 310 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 The Kerr 40 'KukuKERchu' up here for the kings cup went very well, consistantly beating the 2 GP42s and a few other good 40s. it looked impressive. i would say nothing of similar size in NZ would get anywhere near it.

markm 30 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Rikki I would have thought would be close, accepted she's a little more than 40 Link to post Share on other sites

ab1974 1 Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Mate (my old boss in the UK) purchased the first one 'Keronimo' earlier this year. He reckons they are amazingly quick. 7th in this years Round the Island. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 11, 2011 Share Posted December 11, 2011 Ice Breaker is a really nice little boat to sail, she feels really lively and accelerates quick. last wed we hit 18 knots with the A3 on in not to much breeze and she just felt great. I think her and wedge tail would have some close racing if they ever meet. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Ker 40 AFR Midnight Rambler is going really well after only a few races here in Sydney. It has to be the hotest of Favourites for the Sydney to Hobart if the weather suits the 40 footers. It rates very well in IRC - although I know that doesn't matter in NZ. It really shows it's true colours offshore where it's not just windward leeward. The only real weakness is that it's under-ragged and hates the light stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

SMAK Daddy 0 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Great racing in the BOI regatta and the boat enjoyed all wind ranges from 4kts to 24kts.....and a lot of fun mixing it up in Div. A in a 40 footer. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Nice vid Bene but you didn't put any film of that really nice kite hoist you did on the delivery.
