Finistere

Finistere is competing in her third Rolex Sydney Hobart have race, having contested the 1994 50th race and having a second go in 2008. Owner, Robert Thomas, rebuilt her for the Around Australia Yacht Race and she is a comfortable cruiser racer that is at her best in medium to heavy conditions. The race itself is only part of the journey, as Rob and his crew are sailing Finistere from Fremantle to Sydney just to make the start line. They compete regularly in WA, including in such classics as Geographe Bay Race Week and the Geraldton Ocean Classic.
