Crown Series Regatta run and done for another year, and we thought the occasion deserved the return of the BLOOPER!

Ultimate Challenge took home the series win on PHS in our division, and were second in AMS behind Masquerade who also sailed brilliantly all weekend.

A big thanks to Bellerive Yacht Club for hosting the weekend, and a huge thanks to our owner/skipper PJ for taking us for another great ride across the weekend.

After an early start Thursday, some wet times, sunny glorious times with a beer, a night on a mooring (thanks Cretans) to wait for the weather, and several hundred dolphins doing flips'n'sh*t - the boat is now in Beauty Point and ready for this year's L2H.

Nice night for a sail!
