Splash Gordon
Stephen Ellis’s modified Farr 40 Splash Gordon has been optimised from its one design configuration to suit the IRC rule including a fixed bow sprit, masthead asymmetric spinnaker and a new keel which is 300kg heavier than the class one design keel.
She has been very competitive with podium finishes in 2006, 2007 and 2008 Savills, Rolex (2nd in 2006 Rolex Trophy Series) and Audi Regattas. Splash Gordon is currently placed 3rd overall in the 2008 Audi Australian IRC Championships! Definitely a boat to watch - as she will be defending her division win from the 2007 Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race!
