Black Jack
Previously known as Stark Raving Mad, Black Jack is the near sistership of the highly successful racing yacht Wild Oats X and is now owned by Queenslander Peter Harburg. Harburg and his champion skipper Mark Bradford have had solid results in offshore racing. Black Jack took line honours and overall IRC handicap honours in the 2008 Brisbane-Keppel race, then went on to beat Wild Oats X in the line honours battle at the 2008 Audi Hamilton Island Race Week. She finished 6th across the line in 2008 Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race and recently took line honours in the 61st Brisbane to Gladstone race.
The crew of Black Jack includes America’s Cup sailor Peter Merrington, along with Vaughan Prentice and the highly experienced race veteran Bruce Clarke.
