Chi Machine, segelt mit Mangosteen! The
fastest boats at this regatta by far were the new Firefly catamarans,
designed and built in Phuket. The newest Firefly, named Chi Machine,
was launched only a few days before racing started, and made a
winning debut! Chi Machine’s owner, Marc Cudennec, the Hong Kong-based
Asia Pacific manager of Elle magazine, won four of the six races
in the Multihull Racing Class, but the real winners were a large
group of children at nearby Takua Pa. The funds raised from the
sponsorship of his boat – he is aiming to raise US$50,000 before
the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta in December – are all going to the
Tsunami Relief Fund for the Children of Takua Pa, a region hit
particularly hard by the 2004 tsunami. Close behind Chi
Machine was the visually stunning red/yellow Firefly, Moto Inzi,
which finished second overall after some very close racing in great
conditions. |
