Valheru

Valheru has undergone a recent optimisation by designer Fred Barrett and builder Ian Milner to improve performance, and the excitement factor. Valheru was damaged and forced to retire following a collision soon after the start of the 2002 Sydney Hobart Race. Skipper Tony Lyall, a Beaconsfield medico who sails out of Hobart, will return to start in his ninth Rolex Sydney Hobart with virtually the same experienced crew from last year’s race.
