RASI II- Thomas Miller Challenge Trophy
On Sat 22nd April RASI II took place on the water linking Sentosa to Singapore. The event saw six teams compete for the Thomas Miller Trophy in order to raise funds for Mission to Seafarers. Spectators, organisers and support staff were all on board the tall ship Royal Albatross.

The Competing teams were as follows:
- Raffles Quay Rabble
- Team Willis Towers Watson
- HFW Wolfpack
