The 2023 Hobart will be a milestone year for the yacht Bacardi as she heads south for a record 30th Hobart. Incredibly, the yacht has completed all bar one Hobart, when in 2010 she lost her rig in heavy seas off the NSW coast. Her best result saw her finish second overall in 2006. Bacardi is unmistakeable down on the dock in Hobart, where we expect to see all 30 battle flags flying proudly this year, celebrating this remarkable achievement.
