John Muirhead's (formerly of Enchantress fame) has arrived at the squadron with his new purchase. A Prescott Whitehaven catamaran. Looking forward to hearing more information about this boat. Looks very similar to Mark John's Aquila which is currently returning from months in Queensland. Great to have another multi in South Australia.

All the best Robert and crew. We hope you do well. Follow the regatta results HERE

Brilliant Obsession
A new Schionning catamaran has been built and launched in Beachport and has just had its mast fitted in the Robe marina. Built in 8 long years by Colin and Bev Hibberd the boat is magnificent. A number of the MYASA committee were invited to look over the yacht and no one could remember any yacht amature or professionally built that had been finished off better. An absolute credit to both Colin and Bev. The cat is going to be used to cruise the Eastern seaboard.
