Two True is one of the new Beneteau First 40’s to hit Australian waters and is owned by Andrews Saies, representing the Cruising Yacht Club of South Australia. In the boat’s first event, Saies scored a 3rd in IRC Grand Prix Division 2 at Audi Hamilton Island Race Week 2009 and Two True was named the CYCSA's Boat of the Year, having won 1st place in the club’s Musto Offshore Series.
