Over last weekend, the two new Thai Shaw 650s did a spot of racing in some nice light 6-11 knot westerly breeze.

In passage racing on day 1, Hello Kitty was the quickest boat around the course, finishing in a faster time than the various Corsair tris, Jenneau one design, IRC racer cruisers, platus, etc – not too bad for a boat that supposedly is only quick when planing! Corrected out to a win on IRC also.

Sadly for the Kitty, day 2 saw Crime Scene sail well without errors, and staying in phase on the upwinds without stuff ups around the corners, seeing them take out 2 wins on line and ahead of Hello Kitty in both cases….

All in all a nice weekend, and soon with Pornstar back out on the water, all 3 Thai Shaws should be going well, fo’shaw.
