Shark Wins

Van Uden Reco Stellendam Regatta: 1,1,1,4.

A prematurely departed friend of mine (R.I.P.) once said he was almost perfect but that perfection itself would be boring. We were no where near perfect but brilliant enough to win. In fact we have been winning every time out this year. The key ingredients: a good balance of personality and skills within the crew, the ability to convert opportunities into advantage, and fantastic shore support. We just want to have some fun and we do.

Looking up!

2011 is looking up. The family has grown with the arrival of Francesca. Shark has grown to 35 feet and just continues to win everything. The Belgian Moth class has grown with the arrival of Morgan Good. What next?
