Toybox 2
Ian Box raced his ToyBox2 new in the 2012 Sydney Hobart and finished 43rd. He is keen to race again, missing out after losing the rig before the race last year and with the 2020 race cancelled. A past Commodore of MHYC, Box has sailed his XP44 to solid results, including in MHYC’s SSORC and Sydney Harbour Regatta. Box also contested the 2022 Australian Yachting Championships to finish eighth overall. Box did the 2006 Hobart with his former ToyBox and finished 25th. His 25 year-old son, Tom, waiting patiently for two years, will finally get to do his first Hobart.
