Supernova

 

After purchasing Supernova in early 2021, the first-time co-skippers, Felicity Nelson and Alex Seja competed in the 2021 Rolex Sydney Hobart, achieving 13th overall in IRC fully crewed and 4th in IRC Division 4.  This year Nelson and Seja will be racing with a crew that has 90 plus Sydney Hobarts under their belt, with Alex Seja especially looking forward to completing his 20th Sydney-Hobart.
