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

Two Hands. Two Boats.

So far. Please put your two hands together for the first two boats to put in their EOI for the famed Melbourne to Osaka Two-Handed Yacht Race (M2O).

First were Bill Trueman and Joanne Norbury of Chikara Outlaw.

Then there was Vladimir, alias Robert Bradley, with Escapade.

Editor's note - Now what kind of a party are they going to have when they get to Osaka, given how much they got into it for just the 45nm it was to get to Geelong?! WOOHOO.

Editor's further note - Escapade can take one or two souls to Stanley this year in the M2S. If you need to build your experience, then this is a must. See the ORCV Forum on the bottom right of the home page for details.

Editor's further, further note, I'm sure they will have flossed by then!!! They're draping the kite gear over the side to attempt a bit of it...

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.
