Arctos

 

The newest addition to the Flying Fish training fleet, this Radford 16.4 will carry a crew largely made up of European trainees. Built for a private round the world yacht race which never eventuated, Arctos completed the route on her own anyway in 2002 and recently has been sailing out of Yamba. Very powerful both on and off the breeze, co-skippers Colin Burgess and Andy Fairclough will be aiming to improve on last year’s PHS result when they campaigned Bright Morning Star south.
