This Farr 40 One design missed the start of last year's race due to its late launch but will definitely be in the starting lineup for this year. Laurie will use this Hobart race to continue his Kids at Sea program, taking three young people who have gone through drug rehabilitation. While Young Australia has contested a couple of events this year, a top result has eluded her so far but with the Telstra Cup, Farr 40 Championships and Telstra Sydney to Hobart marked on the racing calendar, there should be a good result for Young Australia amongst all that.
