Mistral (TH)

 

Since purchasing the yacht in early 2021, owner Rupert Henry has successfully campaigned his Lombard 34 to victories in the 2021 Summer Offshore Series, Montague Island Race as well as claiming last year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart two-handed division.  No stranger to offshore sailing, Henry has also claimed honours in the 5,500nm 2018 Melbourne to Osaka Yacht Race, in record time.  This year Rupert will be joined by Jack Bouttell who also brings a wealth of experience to the team having won The Ocean Race twice, with Dongfeng Race Team (2017-18) and 11th Hour Racing Team (2022-23).
