We are thrilled to announce that entries for the highly anticipated 79th Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race have officially closed and we have an impressive fleet of 112 yachts ready to take on the challenge.

This year’s race will feature 23 Double Handed entries, showcasing the growing popularity of this demanding discipline, alongside four 100-foot maxis who will be fighting for the Line Honours victory.

The Boxing Day start on Sydney Harbour promises to deliver all the excitement and drama that this iconic race is known for. Spectators can look forward to a thrilling display of competitive sailing as the fleet navigates to the Heads and sets a course for Tasmania, tackling one of the world’s most challenging offshore races.
