Yellowtail

 

Broomstick sailed around the world three times as an Open 60, including the Vendee Globe and Around Alone, before being lengthened to 66 feet by its Sydney owners. The experienced crew, including Colin O’Connor, who will reach the 25 race milestone this year, and celebrity sailing chef Peter McAdam, are looking forward to a quick trip south and a top ten line honours finish.
