Uprising Brightside Marine (TH)

 

Andrew Miller is a shipwright/boat builder and the owner of Brightside Marine in Lake Macquarie – a handy occupation for a yachtie, especially sailing two-handed. He has skippered boats on long trips, experiencing different methods of boat building and repairs along the way. Miller did his first Sydney Hobart over 40 years ago as a 19-year-old. His son, Harrison, an up-and-coming match racing skipper, is co-skipper. Uprising Brightside Marine is a family boat that normally races out of Newcastle Cruising Yacht Club.
