Description

105 yachts will set sail on Boxing Day for the 79th Sydney Hobart Race. From 100-foot maxi yachts vying for Line Honours to 30-foot double handers looking to get themselves in a position to take out the Overall win, it's going to be an enthralling few days on the water. Will Comanche get redemption after a 51-second loss to LawConnect in 2023? Can Alive go back-to-back for overall honours? Or could a team of just two take out the whole thing?

Featured: Nicole Douglass, professional sailor and commentator.
