MHYC Yachts in the Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race

The race was a slow one with light winds, but the finish was exciting with the maxi Wild Thing, now listed as a MHYC entry though its new owner, new MHYC Member David Price, taking line honours from Lahana, by just 5 minutes after 2 days racing. Lahana’s Navigator was MHYC’s Carl Crafoord. Steven Proud’s Swish was 14th over the line, with Bob Cox’s Nine Dragons, 17th and Grant Dawson & Brent Lawson’s Kerisma, 19th. Mortgage Choice Rumba had to retire because of time constraints in the slow race. Nine Dragons was the only MHYC boat with a podium finish with a third place in IRC Division 2. Congratulations to all.
