Navy One

 

Navy One is a Beneteau First 40 based out of Sydney. She is owned and used by the RAN for Sail and Adventure training, sailed solely by serving Navy personnel and regularly sails and races as part of the Navy’s sporting program for recreation and building resilience. This will be a third Hobart on this boat for the Navy. She placed 32nd overall last year and won the Oggin Cup (for the first Armed Services Yacht on corrected time) from Gun Runner for a second year running. The former Lunchtime Legend was owned by Robbo Robertson and scored third in IRC Division 4 in the 2011 Rolex Sydney Hobart.
