Peter Wrigley and Andy Kearnan recently purchased Bryon Ehrhart’s Lucky, which proved just that for her owner, winning the 2010 Rolex Middle Sea Race overall and finishing second in the 2014 Rolex China Sea Race. Michael Spies, who helped in the purchase, joins the crew. Wrigley skippered Vamp to 26th overall and won Division 2 in the 2011 Hobart. Kearnan propelled his L’Altra Donna, to 19th overall and second in Division 4 in the boats lone Hobart in 2010. He finished eighth overall and third in Division 3 in the 2015 Sydney Gold Coast race and fourth overall and second in Division the previous year and won Division 2 of the 2013 CYCA Trophy Rating Series. Spies won Hobart line and overall honours in 1999 and 2003 respectively. Also imported Kiwi star, Rodney Keenan. A formidable team, but will have to beat a hot fleet that includes at least eight other TP52s.
