I thought the same as you !!
Until last week when 421 came over....NC 5 is an amateur lucky enough to do the PWA (sponsors
) but seeing a pro like smx421 sail made us (locals) understand when intesive training and perfectly rigged gear makes such a difference !
Bloody Julien would finish each race 100 m ahead, even of NC5...
Nevertheless, as Vando said Oz vs NC bring it on !!
But back to the topic it's a shame not many of us here have heard about the event could've been a good trip to north qld for us !!!!
