Mahligai also finished second in PHS Division 2 of the 2011 Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race after winning PHS Division 1 in 2009. This year is contesting some OPS races to be race ready.

Before Murray Owen and Jenny Kings owned Mahligai, she spent most of her life racing in Asia. She is berthed at the CYCA where her owners are members, but will race under the burgee of the Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club in New Zealand, in a nod to Owen and Kings’ place of birth.
