Recommended Posts

Not sure if many of you have heard about this but my new ride launches at 11am today at Pier 21.

The boat is a Jeanneau SUN FAST 3600 that I have been sponsored for a few seasons of racing and cruising.

Anyone is welcome to come down and have a look.

 

We have a facebook page if anyone wants to follow the action. https://www.facebook.com/SUNFAST3600racing

 

Looking forward to getting into it!

Yup I remember that night. Pulled put all my dance moves I think but lost my coconut bikini, luckily the girls returned it when we did the dance at prize giving. Huge week of 'sailing'....

Wow had no idea those 2 were related to the designer. That's cool.

In fact I think I sailed with them up in Auckland as well.

Have spoken to the designer a few times now.

That's good info.

 

We had our first sail today. The boat went well. Will put some photos up tomorrow.

We are in B Division. Racing against Boats like Higher Ground, Force 11, Margaritaville and some of the bigger production boats.

hmmm, I see your point Booboo, you were perhaps thinking you should really be in A, or maybe L to challenge you a little more?

 

Well sailed, you'd have to be happy.

B div is definitely right for us. To be honest I was pleasantly surprised with the performance especially upwind. I never thought we would be any where near force 11 on line so to take the line honors win for the division was fantastic on our first outing.

Good result! Could be a different story in the light stuff?

I've raced against a Elan 350 (looks to be a similar concept) in SG and its no where near that fast.
