Melbourne to Osaka (M2O from 05/04/13)

Reggae.

'As in 3/4 time, Mon'... So, anyway, our three and four time are Ryujin fgi and Cadibarra VIII.

As you can see from the image below, Ryujin fgi has been there before and got it's T-Shirts too. She is a Sayer 12m. Incidentally, our first entrant, Chikara Outlaw, is also a Sayer (44), but a little bit older...

Osaka Bay 2007 - done it all before...

As per the date stamp - it's Ryujin fgi this year, off the Gold Coast.

Recently returned to Port Phillip is Cadibarra (VIII). She's been up in QLD for a while and Paul Roberts from RYCV now owns her. She's being referred to as Cadibarra 8 and is doing the 2010 M2S, as well. The Jones 42 was the last of Don Jones' Cadibarras and still holds the M2KI record. Cracked sheets and anything open even further and she will move along. More on it all, soon enough. So there you have it.

There's our 3/4 time. Who will be five???

The Race Committee is keen to review all potential racing opportunities, including things like Class 40. The potential three week starting time window has been proposed to allow vessels of differing speeds to arrive in Osaka at a similar time.
