Thank you to all the wonderful people we have met on this adventure, I am sure Murray will feel the same you have all been amazing !!
Safe travels arbitare
Thx for that lots of purple around the other side
Life aboard the good ship Motorboat for Leg 4. Another great video of them sharing life on the SSANZ #RNZ2019, do they share too much though?! ๐ - Awesome stuff lads!
Motorboat
Well here it is, the last video for the RNZ, Leg 4. Competing in the Round New Zealand Race has been an awesome life experience, and if you ever get the chance, go and do it! Its been a huge chellenge with many ups and downs along the way, we've spent the last month with some wicked people including our fellow competitors, the SSANZ race comittee and all the people we've met at the stopovers. Of course none of this would have been possible without the support of our families, all the people who helped us out (and there were a lot of you) and the businesses that sponsored our efforts, so thank you to all.
Overall we finished second on total elapsed and total corrected time. Well done to Shane and Skinner on Titanium for winning the event on line and handicap; likewise to all other competitors for getting around the 2000 mile course, especially Arbitare and Krakatoa II who had it a bit tougher than the rest of us.
As for the Motorboat II, well she is all tidied up and ready to go again (if we ignore the job lists that came out of this event) , next event is the SSANZ ANZAC 250 in early May as we continue our build up for the SSANZ Round North Island in 1 years time.
So when entries open for the ANZAC 250 shortly, put your entry in, come get involved and lets go do a cool yachting event together.
Thanks again and apoligies for the terrible videos,
Damon, Josh, Jacqui, Sara, Nathan, Luke, Bradley, Isla and Zach (Team Motorboat II)
Top video boys. You must have been gutted at the finish. Bloody yacht racing huh?
The ending was so sad! :( I like my videos to have a happy ending. Suggest you do it all again from the start, this time for a happier ending. We'll be here at the half-way mark for you. :)
Congrats to all of our sailors that successfully completed the 2019 Two Handed Round New Zealand race. First time in the 3 editions where all boats finished the race - the most challenging yacht race in the Southern Hemisphere. Sailing legends all of them!
Missing from the photo are Murray Hartley and Matthew Flynn.
Outstanding!
Does Stewart Island REALLY have to wait another 7 years to see these folks and the gorgeous boats again? Really? :(
Congratulations, Stewart Island loved that we were part of the journey. Come back soon... we don't want to wait 7 years! :-)
Congrats Nigel Garland!
