Invictus Games 2018 Down Under

In last year’s Hobart, Clipper Ventures 5 finished 64^th overall and 13^th in Division 2. It is the former Gold Coast Australia, winner of 12 from 15 legs in the 2011-12 Clipper Round the World race under Tasmanian skipper Richard Hewson. Prior to that, competed in the previous three Clipper races as Team Finland (was second), Jamaica (10^th) and Jersey (ninth). Drew Hulton-Smith, a watch captain on Clipper Ventures 10 in the 2014 Hobart, skippered this boat to 40^th overall in the 2015 Hobart. Before him, Piers Dudin skippered her to 56^th in 2013. This and other 68s are utilised for Clipper race crew training and development for participation in local sailing events.
