Watch this 2010 interview with crewmember Richard 'Sighty' Hammond, conducted after his 40th Hobart

Designed by Robert Clark and launched 15 years ago, Janzoon has been one of the most spectacular and consistent starters in all offshore events. The crew have been sailing together for many years and the teamwork that brings with it, makes her always a dangerous rival. This will be the last of many Hobart races in this yacht for her owner Russell Slade as next year he will be sailing a new rule beating design by Alan Payne. Notwithstanding, the new design, Janzoon will always remain a threat.
