Tim Pepperell and his uniquely-named Farrier F9 Quickskipskangabag has taken out the four-race Geelong Cabs Multi Hull series at Skandia Geelong Week. Two firsts and a third were enough to hold off a strong challenge from George Bulka’s Redshift and secure him the title. In third place, veteran multi hull skipper, Robert Remilton proved his worth yet again on Wilparina II which enjoyed a screaming downhill run today under spinnaker following the race start. Returning home to South Australia from racing in Tasmania and Queensland, the well-travelled trimaran skipper found conditions ideal on the harbour with certainly a lot more water to race on than Remilton’s hometown of Goolwa.
