Smeg and Gotta Love It 7 Michael Chittenden
Gotta Luv It 7 takes Race 1 of the JJ Giltinan 18 Footers International 2011.

Seve's boys put down a solid marker for their intentions of taking back to back JJ Titles.

Seve's crew, the hot event favourites for this year's JJ, did not start in the Friday Invitation Race won by Slam, due to a strength sapping illness. Still clearly not well, he knew he had to get on the start line for the first heat which made his first place finish to Howie Hamlin's CST Composites even more remarkable......

Mark Heeley talks to Seve after coming ashore.......
