Ponant competition winners thank the sponsors

During the summer break, while you dear readers were enjoying your Christmas fare, mysailing works hard to deliver a daily Sydney Hobart Yacht Race newsletter.

During the last race the newsletter included a competition in collaboration with Ponant Cruise Lines: a dinner on Sydney Harbour aboard its luxurious Le Laperouse.

The winners, Elizabeth and Keiran Mulcahy wrote to thank both us and Ponant. Funnily enough, the winners were previous clients from Ponant with a memorable trip to Antarctica.

“Elizabeth and I did enjoy the evening very much. We were very pleased to see crew on Le Lapérouse from our recent voyage on Le Boréal which took us to Antarctica. We had many memorable evenings in Antarctica listening to Roman on the level 6 deck after dinner being looked after very well by your ever attentive and smiling waiter who just happened to be waiting for us as we came on board. Elizabeth was very excited to have a photo with him.

Many thanks for allowing us to be part of your evening in Sydney Town on your beautiful ship and looking forward to our next cruise with Ponant …. which I think is the Sydney – Hobart cruise. We enjoyed the evening so much Elizabeth was hoping to stay on board.

In the end we were the last group to leave in the same tender as Sarina Bratton.

Cheers, Keiran Mulcahy.”

No worries Keiran and thanks for the thanks. Sign up to the mysailing twice-weekly newsletter and keep an eye out for future promotions.
