Patrice Six
Patrice Six last went to Hobart in 2012, when owned by Tony Kirby, and finished 32nd overall in the year of the ‘big boat’, when Wild Oats XI won the treble, breaking her own race record. Kirby sailed the boat to a best Hobart result of fifth and third in IRC Division 3 in 2009, after finishing 31st in 2008. Shaun Lane bought the yacht in 2013 and has been racing in Middle Harbour Yacht Club events, including the 2015 Sydney Harbour Regatta, in which he finished fifth in the X Yacht Production Boat class, after retiring from the Pittwater Coffs Harbour Race in January. He is competing in the BWPS and finished 37th overall in the Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and 19th overall in September’s Flinders Islet Race.
