Profile

One of the CYCA's best-known yachts, this Camper and Nicholson 54 footer won the Sydney Hobart in the big blow of 1970 under her previous owner, (now Sir) Robert Crichton-Brown. Her new owner Jose de la Vega has assembled an experienced crew for this year's Hobart, and Pacha has a big age allowance. If she gets a hard windward slog she could easily power her way into a high placing.
