Patrice Six

 

As Oz Design Patrice Six, she retired from the 2021 race with engine issues. However, the team, who have come together from several other crews continue to improve in 2022, scoring 11th in the Tollgate Islands Race. Prior to Flecknoe-Brown’s ownership, Shaun Lane raced the X-41 to Hobart in 2016, placing 30th, after finishing 43rd in 2015. Originally, the boat was one of Tony Kirby’s many Patrice’s, which he skippered to 32nd in the 2012 race and her best result of fifth, translating to third in IRC Division 3 in 2009, after placing 31st in 2008.
