At this time? Black Jack, since there are only two 100 footers entered right now, and Black Jack consistently performs better than Scallywag seems to. 

Not sure when the entry deadline is, but currently Wild Oats XI, Comanche, Rambler 88, CQS and InfoTrack haven't entered. So... I guess wait and see?

Infotrack is entered, not called infotrack anymore though, only named under her sail no, SYD1000.

I imagine that WOXI might enter late, I think channel 7 would be pushing pretty heavily for them to be out there if they're doing the broadcast.

Rambler and Comanche are too hard to get to Aus given the state of things, and I haven't heard of anything from CQS in years...

Entries close on the 29th of October, so not long now!

What 12 nonths? The rest of the world has moved on -AUS and NZL not so much.

Noted above re the fast boats. But with TH it has brought a number of low raters and cruiser / racers out of the woodwork. Possibly the easy races of recent years too. Where are the Cookson 39s / Fast 40s and TP52s/ fast 50s?

Good line up of 2 handed.

I hope they get their own handicaps line honors etc divisions seeing as they are not allowed to compete for the overall trophy.

After the success of Sunrise in the premier world ocean races the Fastnet and Middle Sea they might have to ban JPK boats as well.

Not sure I would like to go to Hobart in a Elliott 9.6 though, long way if it is a Southerly
