Loki and McConaghy - Winners at Hamilton Island

Audi Hamilton Island Race Week 2010 - The McConaghy-built Loki 63' won the IRC Grand Prix division at Hamilton Island, and became the champion.

Since Loki's launch in 2008 Stephen Ainsworth and his crew have been going from strength to strength. This year they have taken this Reichel Pugh design to victory in two of the main offshore races and have put up a fantastic performance in Hamilton Island with five wins out of nine races in IRC Grand Prix.

Winning the Hamilton Island week also meant the crew won three out of the four Audi IRC Australian championship events, and therefore snatched the overall victory.

Darren Senogles - Captain of Loki was over the moon when we spoke to him earlier today and he had this to say about the boat 'it is awesome, everyone comments when we are out sailing, it is so reliable and a credit to McConaghy's and the crew who maintain it. The Southport race was great, and held up well on the first night, it also did really well in the lighter conditions when we got to Hammo, we have a really great all round boat'

McConaghy's would like to congratulate the crew of Loki on their fantastic win.
