I think this is one of Doug's designs - and if i recall, has the record for the most Sydney - Hobart races of any boat.

Agree, I think in the last iteration boats were able to go ashore, be slipped, have a team of professionals fitting new rudders etc, and then rejoin with no penalty. At least this time there will be a penalty - look, theses guys are all self-funded amateurs, and in the climate we've gotta give em a break. For me, a big hats off to em.

It's just as hard for some to get the boats back home again don't forget.

They are planning to fix it, and rejoin the race. I wonder if they'll need to sail back to the spot they turned around - or take some sort of penalty.

Watched the 2nd start of the fleet start today - 7 boats - they've been flying along, with 25+ wind, and they're doing 10-15kts. Fun way to start a 5000 mile race two up.
