    Was built by Phizzle (Phil from UK Sail Makers in Whangarei) He has some good stories for that boat too! Give him a call and have a yarn with him while he is locked down!

Sagitta was a Modified Spencer Saracen there were 3 of them built the most famous being Saracen for Tom Clarke as the trial horse for a much larger boat the larger boat being Infidel .Simon's boat had a large quantity of lead added and a much bigger keel profile .A larger rig was added with more sail area and a modern cabin profile

  4. Cherub Traveller Series Regatta No 3

    Whanagarei cruising club (Parua bay )

    29/30th May 2021

    The format will be similar to the recent Kerikeri regatta with each day having a windward leeward race followed by a triangle and then a longer harbour course (weather dependant)
    Prizes include a cherub package from U-Dek and more.
    The boats will be rigged up at Parua Bay in the compound so anyone not sailing can come on down and check them out

  5. last words were never made public off the Quartermaster and were only played to a few during an investigation including a senior yacht inspector in the interview room of the Warkworth police station ,The facts from that recording are even more freighting than what everyone else ever heard
