17.01.2022 Bumblebee 4 refit 2017-18 During 2017-18 Bumblebee 4 was completely rewired with new switchboards and B+G electronics. All plumbing was removed and replaced by sponsor, South Pacific Marine group. Interior Refurbish was done by the major sponsor AME Marine who did a total remodel of the nav station and over saw the refit. ... All tanks cleaned and bilges clear coated by Sweep marine. Everything below the waterline was looked after by Bradford Marine. This included sandblast and refair No small task with JOTUN PAINTS supplying all the materials it made a vast improvement to the boats performance. All of this could not have been done without major sponsor Gold Coast City Marina. The amount of help and support and use of the Keel pit has been a massive bonus. We are so grateful for all our sponsors, If it wasn’t for you none of this would be possible. 2017-18 sponsors...

11.01.2022 by Rob Mundle July 2019 A 40th birthday for a legendary yacht at Hamilton Island Race Week 2019... One of Australia’s most successful maxi yachts, the vintage Bumblebee IV, will be celebrating its 40th birthday at Hamilton Island Race Week next month. . The sleek 79 footer, which contested the inaugural Race Week in 1984, will be back this year for its sixth campaign. The birthday boat which will be getting a new wardrobe of upwind sails as a gift will be among more than 220 yachts and 1500 sailors competing in the internationally acclaimed series,to be staged fromAugust 17 to 24. Built in Sydney in 1979 for local yachtsman, John Kahlbetzer, Bumblebee IV’s design and aluminium construction was state of the art for the era. ‘The Bee’ made its mark on the sport immediately after being launched by taking line honours in the Hobart race that year, then the following year being first to finish in the Newport to Bermuda race. It also raced in Sardinia. Ocean racing legend, Syd Fischer, became the owner in 1984 and competed in the inaugural Race Week at Hamilton Island that year. He also contested four Hobarts with the yacht, taking line honours in 1988 and 1990.
