White Noise

 

Daniel Edwards finally got the result he was hoping for in last year’s race, White Noise placing 16th overall for third in Division 3, after having to retire from the past two Sydney Hobarts. The M.A.T 1245 should be among the contenders for a divisional win this time. Edwards has enjoyed success with this M.A.T. 1245 since launching in 2019, including blitzing the field in the ORCVs 49th King Island Race in 2021.With his previous White Noise, a Beneteau, the Melbourne yachtsman was crowned Ocean Racing Club of Victoria’s Offshore Champion for 2016-2017. White Noise placed 29th overall in the 2024 Sydney Gold Coast race and finished 11th in the 2024 Flinders Islet Race.
