The first day of the world’s most southerly superyacht regatta NZ Millennium Cup, saw Tawera take line honours, on a bright, breezy day of racing. Reigning champion, Tawera, crossed the line first today on the Orams Marine Race Day of the 2017 New Zealand Millennium Cup. The 28-metre ketch secured her win with New Zealand sailing icon, Chris Dickson, and her designer Ron Holland onboard, giving owner and experienced helmsman Mike Mahoney the tactical edge.
