Mako

Newcastle Cruising Yacht (NCYC) CEO Paul O’Rourke chose the 75^th running of the Sydney Hobart in 2019 to represent his club with Mako and they placed 60^th overall.  Formerly Questionable Logic, this Sydney 40 was built for the 1999 Admiral’s Cup and was part of the winning Dutch Team, sailing as ‘Trust Computer Products’. It was also known as Pride and raced in several Fastnet races.  In 2018 it was bought by a large syndicate out of NCYC to compete in regattas on the east coast.  The owners take it in turns to skipper the boat at various events on the east coast of Australia and it works for them.
