The Paper Tiger Catamaran Championship 2013 
completed all nine races on Sunday at Meningie Sailing Club with Bruce Rose 
bagging his fourth championship by racking up 18 points just ahead of Alex Craig 
with 21 points and Bryan Anderson with 24 points. 
The Nine race 
series was held at the Meningie Sailing Club on the Waters of Lake Albert, South 
Australia. Six races over the first three days saw positions change 
dramatically, shifty conditions and varying winds from four to fifteen knots 
tested even the best of skippers. At this point Alex Craig from Victoria was 
holding first position followed by Bruce Rose, Bryan Anderson, six times winner, 
his father Peter Anderson three times winner and Garry Williams four times 
winner. Everything pointed to a very exciting contest, but in the end it was 
Bruce Rose who won through for his fourth Championship with 18 points from Alex 
Craig on 21 and Bryan Anderson on 24.
