Wax Lyrical

Wax Lyrical is a Danish design X-50 cruiser/racer built for Les Goodridge, who previously owned and raced the famous timber 8-metre yacht, Erica J. Her first offshore race was the 2014 Land Rover Gold Coast Yacht Race, and this will be her first Hobart, however Goodridge has previously competed in five Hobarts. Since the boat’s arrival in Australia, Goodridge has campaigned her in the CYCA’s Ocean Pointscore Series (OPS), Grant Thornton Short Haul and Club Marine Twilight Series races.

Wax Lyrical finished second overall in PHS of the 2013 to 2014 CYCA Ocean Pointscore series and won the Monica Geddes Memorial Trophy in 2012. Using the Land Rover Winter Series as a test bed for crew trials, Goodridge has built his offshore campaign towards this 70th Anniversary Rolex Sydney Hobart.
