Major Achievements:

Getting the boat on the water has been an achievement in itself as the boat has been sitting for maybe 8 plus years.
Still waiting for a big win, am sure it will come. Is hard when the old man is out front.
2009 Gold Cup Winner

Season Objectives:
 Just to learn I guess. Get as much experience as we can over this season, try not to wreck anything as it seems to be in the Hughes blood. Its all a learning curve and with seat time we will get better and faster.
Profile:
 After watching the old man race all my life and spending the last 10 years full time crewing, thought it was time i give it a shot myself, we managed to get enough spares from dad (thanks) and one of his old boats (shell true blue), that we pulled out of the wood work from down south and here we are. Watch this space!
