8/1/2007 - "Stand Aside" comming to Key West

..."What a fun boat! We have enjoyed moderate success the last few years with the "red sled", and can't wait to rip down the keys. These boats are so much fun and fast, but yet the numbers here in USA are low? We'll get a report in after the race, Phil, Chris, and all the rest of the anarchists that know the Steve Thomo boats, we'll see how we stack up with the FT-10's. Should be fun! ...

21/12/2007 - Waka's White Island Race Experience

Round WhiteIsland Race won by Two Handed entry "Waka". Waka won the Two Handed Division and also event overall on PHRF ! Well Done !

"With a forecast of dying westerlys, then Variable 5kts and the chance of afternoon seabreezes for the next 4 days it was looking like it could be a long race?. Being the smallest boat in the fleet at 8.5m and also one of the few shorthanded entries, we knew this forecast although painfull could potentially be good for us to get a result.

Myself and Jonty Cullinane, Waka's owner and skipper, had put plenty of preparation into this event as it was going to be our training run and qualifier for the Round North Island 2 handed race in Feb 08. ..."

From T850 "WAKA" - New Zealand:
12/12/2007 - 1500nm offshore on a Thompson T850 "Waka"

Crew.org.nz Report:
Anasazi Racing Sponsors "Waka" for the Round North Island race. James Burwick the solo sailor who is halfway thru his around the world solo adventure is the first sponsor to get on board with "Waka".

James is setting off for Capetown South Africa as soon as there is a weather window available to make the dive south into thru the roaring 40s, furious 50s and into the southern ocean.

His boat ‘Anasazi girl’ a finot designed open 40, has undergone a refit in Auckland over the last few months and is now ready to go complete with 3 new sails form North Sails New Zealand customized for the trip in the southern ocean.
James is hoping to Set a new record from Auckland to Capetown.

As an avid adventurer, Mountain climber and shorthanded sailor, he saw the challenge in the round North island race aboard an 8.5m trailer boat and decided to offer his help getting the campaign to the start line.

The RNI is a grueling 1500nm race around the North island of NZ with 3 stopovers, Mangonui, Wellington and Napier what makes this race truily special is the fact that each boat will be competing with only 2 crew.

"Waka" is a Thompson 850 sportboat which has had more than its fairshare of winnings this year taking out almost every coastal race, including First overall in the white island race and night race to kawau, first in division in the coastal classic and 2nd in division in the Tauranga race.

Crewed by experienced sailors Josh Tucker and owner/skipper Jonathan Cullinane, they have a good chance of a podium finish.

With this impressive record the next big challenge was obviously the Round North island race 2 handed. With all the extra preparation needed to get the boat up to cat 2 there was obviously going to be some budget constraints.
James’s donation comes in the form of chartering the boat for a day to allow a disadvantaged sailor the chance to get out on the water.

With the money from ‘Anasazi racing’ it has allowed Jonty and Josh to confirm they will be entering "Waka"in the RNI Race.

There is still a major sponsorship opportunity available including naming right for the team.
We have a proposal ready to go, any enquiry’s can be directed to Josh@nz.northsails.com or 021 2222 143.

31/10/2007 - 26th HSBC Coastal Classic

First on Handicap in Division Two
Jonathan & Victoria Cullinane

The HSBC Coastal Classic is the biggest coastal race in New Zealand, and one of the biggest in the world. It started life 26 years ago as a drag race between Auckland and Russell for just a few boats, and over the years attracted a bigger and more diverse fleet, consisting of grand prix racers, America’s Cup boats, and small family cruisers.
