This week, we dive back into the ratings discussion. This time we talk to an expert, Australian Sailing's Ratings Manager, Chris Zonca. We wanted to ask all the key questions any yacht owner should ask. In reality we only scratched the surface. Regardless, it was a very interesting discussion. Plus there was plenty of fun to be had. Enjoy!

This week we bring in the super sub and chat to them so you can know what to expect. Bicey has plenty on, so the addition of a super sub we feel will make the show stronger. Our new super sub is right at the front of the pro fleet racing everything from Cape 31's to Ultim's. They also bring a strong Banter game. For us it was a no brainer who to offer the role to and thankfully they were super keen to become part of the team.

You will enjoy this chat.
