15/6/2006 Here a few news from
TBoat 750, Rocking Girl, GER 001:
The team with helmsman Michael Kramer have started the season
2006 with 3 small races:
Position 12. from 68 yachts, position 5. from 22 yachts
and position 5. from 28 yachts.
The "20 hours" at the Müggelsee in Berlin
brought the first success. At 6-9 wind forces we started
at saturday at 3 a clock p.m. The wind keeps up all night
long. In 20 hours we sailed 187,9 nautical miles. But there
was only 18 % to sail with genacker. This 18 % we sailed
with 19 - 22 knots.
Result: fastest kiel-yacht and a new round-record.
And the last 3 races:

Hahns Hamilton Island Race Week 19-26th August 2000 (Australia)
This year the T750 was the overall winner of the Sport Division
at Hamilton Island, with our Thompson boats winning for
the 3rd year in a row. A total of 9 boats raced in the sports
division at Hamilton Island, including 4 Thompson Boats.
The sports boat division included a new design Bakewell-White
8.4m, and two Elliott 7.8 an Elliott 770 and one Lidgard
8 metre.
This year the average wind speed for the week was 10 knots,
with max 32-33 knots, 2 races on Race day 2 and 4 were abandoned
due to lack of wind. The overall results finished up with
Pierre Gal, owner of T7.5 from Coffs Harbour C'est La Vie
finishing 1st over all. The next Thompson boat to finish
second overall with remarkable results was Mark Matthew
newly built T8 Buckle up Spanky, travelling from Brisbane
and racing for the very first time. Then the two boats from
Melbourne, Robert Davis who owns T7 Four Clean Skins finished
in 5th place and David Stoopman boat, Smoke on the Water
finishing 7th. I have included below the race results for
our 4 boats in each of the 6 races.
As Hamilton Island Race Week has only just finished on Sunday,
we still have to catch up with news and comments on the
racing, so this will follow next month.

Smoke Wagon is owned by Brook Faulkner started with an unbeatable record with 3 wins under its belt, winning by a margin of 3 - 5minutes, the last 2 races the boat has placed 2nd on handicap. The T750 is in the same division and beating 3 young 11, an Elliot 1050, Farr 38 and Ross 31. We will have more racing results this season when all the new T750 are completed and are racing.
We are still waiting for more racing records from our T750 owners. Once the results are received they will be published onto our site. |
