To mark the 60th anniversary, all four of skipper George Snow’s adult children will join him for his personal 23rd Rolex Sydney Hobart Race and the yacht’s 12th.
With a string of race records, including a line honours win in 1997, and her regular crew aboard, Brindabella will have her work cut out against the 98 footers and the 60-footers sporting new canting keel technology, but should still finish in the top five.
