Occasional Coarse Language Too

 

Since her launch in July 2011, Warwick Sherman’s latest yacht, a Ker designed Sydney GTS43, Occasional Coarse Language Too, he has spent the two seasons getting to know the boat and how she performs in all conditions and now has his boat up to speed. Occasional Coarse Language Too finished second in PHS Division of the 2011-2012 Grant Thornton Short Ocean Spring Pointscore and won Division A2 of the Audi Winter Series 2012. In her first major offshore outing, last year's Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race, Sherman was forced to retire with a steering problem. However, he finished fifth and 10th respectively in the Flinders Islet and Bird Island races, won the Gascoigne Cup in October and won IRC Division 1 of the Lion Island Botany Bay race in December.  In Sherman’s first Rolex Sydney Hobart, OCL Too won IRC Division 2 and finished 16th overall; and finished fifth in CYCA’s Blue Water Pointscore.
