Peter Hollis, a prominent member of the RQYS and a one-time world champion, has put together a strong team to campaign this boat for what is believed to be her first race to Hobart. Heaven Can Wait was built originally for Warren Johns, a well known member of Middle Harbour Yacht Club who chose the name after he survived a heart attack. When he retired to live on Hamilton Island the boat’s sail number changed to H1.
