Bacchanal

Bacchanal’s inshore and offshore crew comprises of Australian, American and British sailors, including owner, Ronald Epstein. His JPK 11.80 was built by JPK Pacific in Nowra, NSW and launched in November. Her crew, who will have only a short time to get to know the boat, were thrilled to start competing in Australia in November, placing sixth overall in her maiden event, the CYCA’s Bird Island Race and she finished sixth, the smallest of the top six boats, putting her rivals on notice. JPK yachts have had outstanding success at major international races and her owner and crew have shared many a podium place with Epstein’s previous yachts.
