Pazazz

Pazazz

 

Rob Drury bought Pazazz in August 2012. He competed in the 2013/14 CYCA Ocean Pointscore finishing PHS 11th overall. In the 2014 Hobart, Drury, who is known as a short-handed sailor, finished 22nd overall and 10th in Division 3, then retired with mainsail damage in 2015. Pazazz finished 18th overall in the 2015 Blue Water Pointscore, with a best result of 12th overall in September’s Flinders Islet Race. Previously named Siena IV, the Cookson 12 was imported from Auckland in September 2008 by a syndicate of three. She has contested a variety of races, including the 2009 and 2010 Pittwater to Coffs Harbour Races, but this is her first Sydney Gold Coast race. Carl Crafoord, with 30 Hobarts on his resume, joins the crew.
