Well, fudge!
Here I thought it was one of the Oz posters! Not sure if we have too many from Thailand posting, nor did I see the Thailand reference to where the race was. OR< I just do not know the geography well enough..........

Sansanook is a Jeanneau 36i (standard version + folding prop) and we were narrowly beaten by a well sailed Tasker 32 (Rolly Tasker), in the 4 day Top of the Gulf Regatta in Thailand. The cruising class used IRC handicaps and there were 11 starters, also including; Bavaria 39, Catalinas 30, 37.5 and 42, Cyclades 43, Beneateaus 21.7, 320 and 361, and an Ericson 38. This is a fantastic regatta attracting top sailors and yachts from this part of the world. Check it out at: www.topofthegulfregatta.comAndrew

Another good performance in IRC 3 class was 'Magic' a JOD 35. He finished 3rd behind an unbeatable Farr MRX sailed by a Thai navy crew, and an X99. 'Magic' sailed by David Bell features in this month's photos in his previous colour scheme and name 'Magic Roundabout'
