New Caledonia’s 2021 keelboat champions are back for their second attempt at the Rolex Sydney Hobart, following an early retirement last year when leading the hotly contested Sydney 38 fleet. The team has had some impressive results on the water, winning the 2022 Groupama Race overall in IRC and ORC. Owned by Thierry Leseigneur, the crew also includes his son Malo Leseigneur, who is a seven-time ILCA French National Champion.
