Tony Kirby's latest Patrice, a Ker 46, was launched in November 2013. With over 35 years experience, Tony is known for his commitment to offshore racing. In 2017, he was named CYCA Ocean Racer of the Year, after taking the Blue Water Pointscore championship, topping both the IRC and ORCi overall divisions. 2018 marks the 10th year that Tony and the Patrice crew have been raising funds to support The Kids Cancer Project.
