Bronte and I joined Kingurra as crew in the Boxing Day Dash. Johnny Clifford came along for the experience too. We had a great day. As luck would have it (ahem!) we won Div 1 PHRF! After finishing the race we dropped some of the crew off at Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron. Then we headed to QCYC for the night before returning to Brighton the next day. On the way home we had about 40 knots across the deck. Bronte's first experience of rough conditions.
