Snez Tobin on the helm

Snez Tobin writes, ‘On Tuesday 19 November, I had the privilege of helming the beautiful “Whistling Kite” in this week’s Ladies’ Tuesday Twilight Race on Sydney Harbour, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the opportunity. My team was absolutely fantastic. Each member brought their own expertise and enthusiasm, making it a rewarding race where we came equal 2nd.



Exciting start with Andiamo! and Kookaburra

The conditions were perfect for an evening on the water; a light breeze and a shortened course that provided a pleasant but challenging sailing experience. We had to adjust quickly, working together as a cohesive unit to make the most of every gust of wind. Although the breeze was light, it kept us on our toes, requiring skillful coordination and strategy throughout the race.



Back at the Club

A special thank you to Nicola and Kym, the boat owners, for entrusting me with the helm. It was an incredible experience to lead such a capable and dedicated team, with a special mention to our boat whisperer, Dinah. I’m so grateful for the opportunity and look forward to more adventures on the water with this amazing crew.’
