Myth of Malham
In IRC Class Two, we won!
Here’s our write up from Yachts and Yachting (our moment of fame):
Geoff hails from New Zealand and decided to purchase the Swedish built yacht because he wanted a boat that he could race but also one that he could cruise with his friends. “The crew certainly didn’t think it was a cruise when we were tacking through 180 degrees, just to tread water for an hour or so.” Laughed Geoff.
“Besides some impressive crew work, I think the fact that we were able to fly a sym
metrical kite and sail 30 degrees higher along the rhum line may have been a big factor, correct sail choice and just keeping the boat moving were also crucial. We will take the win and will be back for more this season.”
