All hands on deck at Napier & Blakeley

Every year Napier & Blakeley enter a yacht in the Property Industry Foundation charity yacht regatta to help to raise money for young people at risk. Every year we get closer to winning our category and this year we came a very close second, only beaten by 1 minute and 41 seconds.

Just shows you how that collective opening of a cold beer and taking your eye off the ball can affect the outcome of the race.

This year we raced on a yacht called Pilgrim from East Coast Sailing and their skipper Paul and crew Christian were a fantastic combination on the day and got us so close on the day. Most of the other yachts will remember Paul barking (polite) instructions and suggestions to them as we were jostling for position.

This year Napier’s were represented by Alastair Walker, Simon Fox and Peter Osborn and were very ably assisted by Mark Durran from Jones Lang LaSalle, Tim Atkins from Titanium Property, Nigel Fraser from Lend Lease, Tony Martin and Anthony Kingsley from Anton Capital, Jean Marc Hakim from Alceon Partners, Tulio Maglione from Charter Hall and David Jones from Baker & McKenzie.

With a special mention to our two excellent helmsman, Mark and Tim, who got us so close to the cigars.

Our crew on the day represented the wide range of areas and disciplines that Napier & Blakeley act for including property owners and investors, developers, financiers, lawyers and agents who all utilise Napier & Blakeley services in their normal day to day property and development business.

Next year we will again support this great cause again and will try and pay attention for the whole race and
bring home first place.

If you want to join us next year, let us know and we will keep you posted.
