Smuggler

 

Bought by Bruce Foye and Sebastian Bohm in 2015 and renamed The Goat, Bohm has renamed her Smuggler. She finished and 34th overall for fourth in Division 2 in the 2015 Hobart, then 43rd overall in 2016. The same year, placed fourth in Division 1of the Sydney Harbour Regatta, second in the NSW IRC Championship and fourth in the 2016 Brisbane Keppel Race. In 2017 finished 25th in the Sydney Gold Coast, seventh in the Brisbane Keppel race and eighth in the Cabbage Tree Island Race. Bohm has certainly put in the miles with this Rogers 46, which could pay dividends in the upcoming Rolex Sydney Hobart.

Sam Haynes previously owned the boat he named Celestial. Retired from the 2010 and 2011 Hobarts (as Pirelli Celestial in 2010), but from 2012 to 2014, did well,  including finishing runner-up in the 2012 BWPS after placing 22nd overall for third in IRC Division 2 of the Hobart. Was third overall the following year, then in 2014, as ADA Celestial, placed 11th for second in Division 2 to win the BWPS in both IRC and ORCi, inclusive of overall victory in the Sydney Gold Coast race. As Shogun, placed 12th overall for third in Division C in 2007.
