Tony Lawson's Class 40, Concise, completed the RORC Caribbean 600 after just under 3 days at sea. With six crew with an average age of just 22 years, they are by far the youngest team in the race. Concise retained the Concise Trophy for the third year running, much to the delight of the owner, Tony Lawson.
"Although Ned Collier Wakefield is down as the skipper, this really is a combined effort from a great bunch of very talented lads. The new boat is going well with less freeboard and a much more ergonomic cockpit and the articulated bowsprit gives the crew more options. It was important that we continued to build on our success in the Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland and we were very please to see that we went even faster than in the similar conditions we experienced in the 2009 RC600. We feel we have nudged the bar slightly higher."
