Flying Fish Arctos
A training vessel for both international competitors and locals, this will be Flying Fish Arctos' 17th appearance in the Sydney Hobart. Originally designed to race around the world, the yacht is one of the flagship vessels in the Flying Fish offshore training fleet. The yacht should be well placed as a contender in the PHS division, having previously posted a flurry of podium places in previous editions.
