About The Race
The Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race began in 1945 when nine yachts gathered on what was originally planned to be a leisurely cruise down to Hobart. As the spark of competition ignited amongst them, when the smallest competitor Rani sailed into Constitution Dock on New Years Day 1946, their journey gave birth to what would become the legendary Sydney Hobart Yacht Race. Transforming into an international yachting classic, the Race quickly became an icon of Australian summer sport.
