Pinta - M
Pinta-M has raced successfully offshore on the North Sea and placed 5th overall in the Rolex Fastnet Race in 2005. Like the S & S 47 Love & War, which claimed overall honours in the 2006 Rolex Sydney Hobart, Pinta-M performs exceptionally well upwind in a stiff breeze. The boat has remained in Australia since last year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart, where she finished third in IRC Division 4. Blei together with his keen crew will be pushing hard again this year to try and improve on last year’s results.
