Maritime shepherd the fleet away from a visiting whale. It’s certainly been a different winter on Sydney Harbour than usual, while there’s been plenty of sunshine, the breeze has not been so forthcoming. Normally winter consists of light sou-easters and the occasional fresh westerly, this time we’ve had gloriously sunny days with westerlies around five knots or lower, week after week, with a number of races abandoned as a result. Still, where else would you rather be, escaping the office on an uncrowded harbour with like-minded friends, intent on sailing and fun. The ever-welcoming crew on NOMA. As ever Forza 2 is the boat to watch out for with speed aplenty, though now starting 23 minutes behind the first boat off, means John and crew have a lot of chasing to do. A new challenge was presented to the race committee one afternoon, as…

AVAILABLE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Brent Vaughan from HH Catamarans distributor Multihull Central, takes the HH50-SC ‘Synergy’ out sailing off the Gold Coast to test how it sails in lumpy conditions and light winds. Here is the full account and transcript that accompanies the sailing video. Concept With influences from building TP52’s, Americas cup yachts and at one stage Gun Boats, the Hakes and Hudson partnership has emerged as arguably the leading shipyard in its class of high performance production and semi custom cruising catamarans, intertwining technology and comfort. Though many HH catamarans are raced and they enjoy the fact their boats are strong enough to fly a hull, the real reason more and more are attracted to these performance cats is that they sail well in lighter conditions as they do in stronger conditions. This efficiency means more champagne sailing days and less diesel…
