Wax Lyrical

Wax Lyrical

 

Les Goodridge and Wax Lyrical are proving a formidable team and have been almost impossible to beat in PHS in major events, including the 2015 Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and the 2015 Blue Water Pointscore, in which they claimed the PHS Trophies. In the 2014 Gold Coast race, she finished PHS fifth overall. In mid-July Goodridge finished seventh overall in the 2016 Land Rover Winter Series, but her score takes into account that Wax Lyrical missed two of the races. Wax Lyrical is a pretty Danish X-50 cruiser/racer designed for her owner, who keeps her busy on the race track in CYCA races. She is easily recognizable by the fearsome skull and crossbones on the white kite.
