Frantic

 

Mick Martin sailed Frantic to 48th overall in the 2014 Rolex Sydney Hobart after finishing 24th overall in 2013. The former Wallabies winger produced 38th overall in the 2015 Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and is hoping to recapture the form that led to his taking overall honours in the 2013 Gosford-Lord Howe Island race and his fourth the following year. Martin has added some skiff types to the crew, including Brad Greenrod and Jonathan Francis. He bought the former ‘Strewth’ in 2012, on-selling the Sayer 40, LMR Solar/Frantic. He is competing in the CYCA‘s 2015 Blue Water Pointscore Series and finished 13th overall in the Newcastle Bass Island Race in October.
