Abracadabra

Abracadabra

 

Abracadabra last went to Southport in 2007 and finished ninth overall in PHS, so James Murchison and his crew can only go up from there. In last year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart, Abracadabra finished fifth in PHS Division 2 and 49th on line. In August last year, Abracadabra finished fifth overall in the Sydney Amateur Sailing Club’s Lion Island Race and finished eighth in the PHS Division of the Cabbage Tree Island Race in November in the lead up to the Rolex Sydney Hobart.
