Watch this 2010 interview with navigator Richard 'Sighty' Hammond, conducted after his 40th Hobart
Having been on the cover of the 1983 Souvenir Program, and on the poster for this year's Race, this red maxi will not slip home unrecognised. A very experienced crew with a record 188 Hobarts among them, should ensure a fast race in what will probably be her last before going to new owners. Perhaps she will repeat her 1981 line Honours win.
