Gold Coast Australia - Clipper Round the World Yacht Race 2011-12 Clipper Race/onEdition
The Clipper fleet is approaching the Scoring Gate, a very high quality result overall for Richard Hewson and his Gold Coast Australia entry, with routine crew changes, Heson has produced a string of wins and is dominating the fleet.


The Volvo Ocean Race stop-over in Auckland has been hugely successful with a big crowd on arrival, a stream of visitors at the Auckland base and there will be no doubt big crowds for the in Port Race and next leg start. As you'd expect we will bring you all the news and pix.

The Performance Sailcraft sponsored Laser World Masters continues today. Sail-World will continue its detailed coverage through the last six races on Saturday.


We will be back at RQ for the Laser Youth Worlds from June 28th to July 4th.
