'The Sled' is actually not doing Hobart this year, I believe she's
racing North instead but many of her crew will go south in other
yachts.
Built as a downwind flyer, hence the Bobsled name, when she was
launched she had a small problem with her keel wich caused the entire
boat to literally buzz when surfing over 25kts....very uncomfortable.


Not doing the Hobart this year? Surprise, surprise!

Who can blame them for sparing themselves further humiliation for
their ignorance of sailing basics such a using a balanced sail plan
reefed down for the conditions.

The buzz that crew felt was most likely from cannabis.
