Wild Oats sailors model Henri Lloyd

High performance models of all kinds were put to the test at the Audi Sydney Harbour Regatta Presentation Night held at Flying Fish restaurant, Jones Bay Wharf last week.

The crowd hushed as the winner of the weekend’s yacht racing and Monday’s motorkhana was announced and presented with the keys of a brand new Audi A4. Cheers accelerated as a second Audi A3 was drawn in a surprise twist, leaving the crowd hyped up and a hard act to follow for the Henri-Lloyd fashion parade.

Much Dutch courage and good looking models were needed to entice the crew of Super Maxi Wild Oats off the boat and onto the catwalk, strutting to the beat of 'I’m too sexy' by Right Said Fred.

The crew were an instant hit with their unique high performance modeling style and showcased the latest from the Henri-Lloyd marine and fashion collections in true to the sea style.

Sporting the latest TP2 Shadow Jacket in Carbon and the TP3 Reflex Offshore Jacket in Yellow, the guys showed that Henri-Lloyd technical gear teamed with Henri-Lloyd Deck Fit Jeans from the autumn collection translates easily from Bass Strait to Jones Bay Wharf.

Wolf whistles aside, the parade proved to be the perfect finale to the evening with Wild Oats all ready putting their hand up for the next Henri-Lloyd show at Hamilton Island in August.
