Occasional Coarse Language Too’s Sydney Hobart debut was 2012 and she won IRC Division 2. Warwick Sherman raced the Ker GTS 43 again in 2014, but retired with steering damage, a let-down for Sherman, who had written the race into his bucket list after a bout with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma cancer and out of respect for fellow yachtsman Ed Psaltis, who is now sailing with him. With Phil Eadie navigating and Ed Psaltis (driving) accompanied by a few ex Midnight Rambler crew, OCCL Too finished 23rd overall and fourth in Division 2 in the 2017 Sydney Gold Coast, fifth in the Flinders Islet Race, sixth in the Newcastle Bass Island Race and seventh in the Cabbage Tree Island Race – consistent results.
Warwick and his team are supporting the Snowdome Foundation and are raising funds with a target of $6,280 that is $10 per nautical mile of the race. Help them go beyond this target by donating online at https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/sydney-to-hobart-snowdomeocltoo
