Samurai Jack arrives in Melbourne

2013 Osaka entrant Samurai Jack arrived in Melbourne last week to compete in the Melbourne to Hobart to Westcoast Race. Michael Lazzarini –Skipper and Ryan Donaldson- crew, came through the oil fields in Bass Strait in some feisty weather and said the fun was had coming through Port Phillip Heads at half tide doing 24 knots with the southerly up their transom!

Michael has had a passion to compete in the Osaka race since his Father sailed in the very first Brisbane to Osaka race. He has worked with John Sayer and is familiar with past Osaka entrants Runaway and Wasabi.

They are looking forward to the ride down the Westcaost at Christmas.
