Wot’s Next last pointed south to Hobart in 2019 when she placed 55th overall. In his second Sydney Hobart with Wots Next, in 2018, Charles Cupit finished 59th. The Sydney yachtsman purchased the Sydney 47 in 2016, returning to Sydney from Tasmania, and retired from the 2016 Hobart with damage. As Wot’s Next, the boat did the Hobart in 2007 when owned by Graeme Wood. It was skippered by Bill Sykes (Wood raced his updated yacht), who took a crew of mainly CYCA Youth Academy sailors and finished 34th overall. Sykes took a similar crew the previous year, placing 37th. In 2005, Wood finished 10th to win Division D.
