New South Welshman Adrian Walters is confident he can take out the Airlie Beach Race Week with his Rob Shaw 11m Little Nico.
The yachtie was the first to sign up for the Whitsundays Festival of Sailing event but he faces stiff competition with more than 60 competitors quickly following suit from across Queensland, NSW, South Australia, Tasmania and Victoria.
“I’m not surprised we’re first; I like to be organised,” the Middle Harbour Yacht Club sailor said.
“We’re coming back because I had so much fun last time we were there (in 2017).”
“We’ve come off a win at the Sydney Harbour Regatta in March, so we’re going to try to continue our winning streak at Airlie Beach, then Hamilton Island and Magnetic Island Race Weeks.
