Massive congratulations to Blackwater Sailing Club sailors who have won the famous transatlantic ARC race from Gran Canaria to St Lucia. ‘Sunbeat VI’ finished the crossing in 18 days to not only win their monohull class D but they also achieved the fantastic result of first overall out of the 95 competing cruisers!

The Dehler 42 was skippered by Steve Kuhl and crewed by Drac Norman, Tim Gratey, Angela Docherty, Ed Sadd and Nigel Clark with shoreside support from Andy Pickering.
