Sylph VI returns for its first offshore race since her last Sydney Hobart in 1972. Since then, owner Bob Williams has sailed around the world two and a half times, most recently successfully completing a non-stop single-handed circumnavigation via all the great capes in 193 days. For this year’s race, Williams has a simple goal – complete the course, preferably before New Years.
