Caro

 

Launched in 2021, Caro has been one of the most impressive yachts to be campaigned offshore.  Under Owner Max Klink, the yacht placed third overall in the 2022 RORC Transatlantic Race, before claiming overall honours in CS1 at the Les Voiles de St. Barth Regatta and overall IRC 1 honours at Hamilton Island Race Week.  This year they will return for their second Rolex Sydney Hobart after finishing third overall in 2022 as one of the favourites, having claimed the 50th Rolex Fastnet Yacht Race in July 2023 as well as topping their division in the Rolex Middle Sea Race.
