Guest Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 My first foray into the Mullet boat fleet with Trubi and the lads on Tamatea. What a great day! The interest form around the harbour was awesome! People were lined up on North Head, the Navy shadowed the fleet around the course and there were numerous PCC support boats following as well. Fantastic history behind this trophy, and well done to the PCC for putting on a great day. We ended up second behind Orion 2. Well done to Martin and his crew on their 3rd win in a row. The body was a bit battered after spending the day on the bow though... Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Wal, you would have loved it, I can definitely find you a boat for next year's 91st Lipton Cup, dont worry about that. I know I had the easy job, except my arms have grown a lot longer, but that was about as much fun as you can have in a boat with one hull! (I put that in for the bike and trike brigade, so no comments pul...ease). Link to post Share on other sites
