Phil and Des had her out competing with the Huon Yacht Club. We understand that they won the lee-boarder division. To quote from the Huon Yacht Club news:
‘Cutest boat and winner of the Shiraz, was the LBT’s Getchen demonstrating a surprising off wind propensity for speed; her lee boards raised like a milk-maid’s skirts, as she legs it across the cow paddock..‘
Basil missed out – he was going to be foredeck hand until it was remembered that Gretchen has a self-tacking jib.
