Tasmanian yachtsman David Creese has just purchased this DK46 for his first Rolex Sydney Hobart. A blend of youth and experience is combined in this all-Hobart crew. Competing in its third offshore race under its new owner, Dekadence and her crew are hoping they can follow-up on their 2008 IRC win in the Launceston to Hobart race with their previous yacht, a Sydney 38, Creese Property. Dekadence recently completed the ORCV’s Melbourne to Stanley race, finishing 14th overall.
