Sail-maker Turns Reporter….Michael Coxon CEO of North sails Sydney is reporter-at-large on-board Super Maxi Wild Oats XI in the recent RQYS Club Marine Brisbane to Keppel tropical Yacht Race which started from Moreton Bay and went north outside Fraser Island. It started in a howling southerly and Wils Oats broke the record with a stunning kite ride in 16 hours, 56 minutes and 30 seconds. It was a case of Lunch and Dinner at sea and Breakfast in the Club.
Cocko captured, in his own inimitable style the atmosphere on-board during this 23 knot run.
Thank you Cocko well done but don’t give up your day job.
