The 2019 Traspac race started on a gorgeous day even though it was a very slow start for the first 24hrs. Once that passed the conditions were ideal with a steady 20kts all the way to Hawaii. Fingers crossed we get similar or better conditions this year!⠀

Little wind in the harbour made for a slow start in the Bird Island Race, but the southerly helped us hit 16knots downwind, with punching into the swell on the return leg creating spray for the rearguard in the cockpit😉... Photos: @bowcaddymedi@cruising_yacht_club_australia

Stoked to win The Power Of The Lens People’s Choice Award last night at the 2020 Kennedy Awards for Excellence in Journalism. Always enjoyed working the the late great Les Kennedy so it’s a special win for me. Proud to also win as a freelancer representing The Sydney Morning Herald. Great way to bookend my 23 years on staff. Congrats also to @nampix & @jamesbrickwood for their awards for best news and portraiture photos respectively.
