Review of 1st Borneo Cup Yachting Challenge
The inaugural regatta in October 2003 saw the eventual start list of 11 keel boats representing Australia, United Kingdom, France, Labuan, Sarawak, Brunei Darul Salam and United States. Not to be outdone by their bigger brothers, 40 dinghy sailors of the Optimist, Laser and 470s class put in their fair share of competitive sailing in Miri Bay over the last two days.
The boat with the name spelt the same backwards, "Ulumulu" emerged as the first winner of the Borneo Cup Challenge trophy. The custom Sydney 46, owned by Troy Yaw and skippered by Bill Nichols, won the cup "by a very close margin" in the words of Principal Race Officer, Mark Pryke.
