2007 cheeseburger winners

Cheeseburger In Paradise 2007 Winners


Kimi Kosugi successfully defended the "Big Brass Burger" and won for the second consecutive time on two different boats.

A big CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Kimi and his crew for a job well done. Despite a not so great start they managed to work their way up through the fleet to be first at the weather mark and they maintained that position to the end.

The following sailors are members of Kimi's winning crew:

Gary Eaves.
Lonnie Spencer
Dean Johnson

Congratulations for a never give up effort.
