Speedwell (TH)

After placing third in the inaugural Two-Handed division in 2021, Campbell Geeves and Wendy Tuck return on Speedwell, kindly loaned to them again by Geeves’ father, Colin. The pair took the 9.9 metre Beneteau to 24^th overall in the Flinders Islet Race and fifth in the Two-Handed division and fourth Two-Handed in the light Bird Island Race. Tuck’s background includes three Clipper Around the World races, winning overall in 2018 and becoming the first female skipper to win a round the world yacht race. She is also one of only two women to have won the Jane Tate Memorial Trophy (for the first female skipper to cross the Hobart finish line) twice, among her other accolades.
