This Sydney 38 was the best placed of its class in the 2004 and 2007 Audi Sydney Gold Coast races.  Bought by identical twin brothers Louis and Marc Ryckmans and third owner and skipper Ola Anderson in 2005, this will be the syndicate’s fourth consecutive Rolex Sydney Hobart.  The crew has high hopes of a divisional win while the owners are happy to settle for hot meals, flat seas, warm weather and a position on the boat other than sewer and bow.
