Knee Deep
This Beneteau 40.7 has been chartered for this year’s Sydney Mooloolaba and Rolex Sydney Hobart by Philip Childs, a Perth surgeon who skippered his own boat Courtesan to win Div D in the 2004 Rolex Sydney Hobart. Most of the crew from that race will return for the boat’s first Rolex Sydney Hobart. The boat is named after Philip’s Margaret River Vineyard and Winery – Knee Deep Wines.
