Bakewell-White Yacht Design wins 4th New Zealand Powerboat Title

by BWYD Media on 8 May 2010
Doosan leads a race for the Superboat Class title and 100 Mile Overall title Cathy Vercoe LuvMyBoat.com http://www.luvmyboat.com

Second place in the last race of the 2010 Rayglass New Zealand Offshore Powerboat Championship was enough to secure both the Superboat Class and overall New Zealand Title for ‘Doosan’ and her crew of Sam Filmore and Cary Gleeson.

‘Fairview Windows and Doors’ lead from start to finish and were unchallenged for the race win, but ‘Doosan’ had their eyes firmly on the championship and paced themselves to ensure a solid finish that would take them to the title ahead of the Australian Champion boat ‘Team 3’.

This is the fourth time that a Bakewell-White boat will carry the coveted NZ-1 into the next seasons racing and we are very proud of that achievement given that the competition are running boats that cost a lot more to build and are from manufacturers that have a massive reputation in the world of powerboat racing.

Congratulations to Sam and Cary for a win in their debut season in the Superboat class, and we thank them for adding another winner to the Bakewell-White stable.

Fortune favours the Beneteaus!
Thank you, Huey… Some sun, and a tad of wind means it is time to go racing... Ahead of the annual Beneteau Pittwater Regatta by Flagstaff Marine the weather had not been all that grand. So, peaks of sun migrating to distinct patches, and the occasional zephyr turning into a waft, then on to a calm breeze was fortunate.
