AAPT

 

Sean Langman has chartered this powerful 90-footer with a canting keel for the 2005 Rolex Sydney Hobart from Ludde Ingvall who skippered the boat through galeforce conditions to take line honours in last year’s 60th Rolex Sydney Hobart.  The boat, then called Nicorette, also finished a close 2nd for IRC overall placings.  Not long afterwards, on a social sail off the Gold Coast, the boat broke its mast putting her out of racing until now, with a new rig being built for this race.
