Michael Martin will be heading into this year's Hobart with high hopes having just taken out the Sydney to Auckland Yacht Race under IRC. The yacht also claimed Line Honours and set a new race record for the CYCA's Ponant Sydney Noumea Yacht Race in 2018, shaving some 44 hours off the previous record. Other notable results for Frantic include a win on IRC in the 2013 Gosford-Lord Howe Island Race.
