Cinquante

 

Kim Jaggar, a veteran of 34 Sydney Hobarts, placed 23rd for third in Division 5 in 2019 and was second in both the Sydney 38 and Corinthian divisions – a good result for the respected high school principal.  In 2018, he placed 28th and was second in the Corinthian division after buying Cinquante (it means ‘50’ in French) that year.  Its only other Sydney Hobart was 2008 when long-time Victorian owner, Ian Murray, won the Sydney 38 division, when the boat was named Morris Finance Cinquante.  Bob Thomas of Midnight Rambler fame is in the navigator’s chair, with other ‘Ramblers ’, Michael Bencsik and Chris Rockell, joining the crew.  If it is a small boat race, Cinquante should be in the running.
