All entrants in the 2009 M2KI have an equal chance to be winners this year!
That's right. They can all be the winner of the special raffle for a 120m reel of 12mm Superbraid, proudly donated by Donaghys. What a great prize and what a great amount of rope. All sailors and especially boat owners, will recognise the awesome value this donation represents.
Superbraid is a member of the Donaghys product family and has the following features:
- HMPE Dyneema SK75 core with HT polyester cover provides high strength with minimum stretch and weight
- Anti-slip coating on core prevents core/cover slippage and protects the core if the cover is removed
- Withstands shock loadings and accepts a higher radius and knots
- Suitable for all running rigging applications
- The break on the 12mm Superbraid is 7660kg.
"We couldn't be more thrilled with the continued involvement of Donaghys for all the racing we do. Darryl Ford and Donaghys are marvellously supportive", ORCV Commodore, George Shaw said before going off to complete his own preparations on ‘The Secretary', one of the 23 entrants in the M2KI this year. "What a shame I'm inelligible for the draw", Shaw went on to add.
So if you're racing to King Island this year, there's now an added incentive to get there - as if abalone soup and K.I beef burgers weren't enough!!!
