After heavy weather lead to forced retirements in the last to Sydney to Hobart races, the highly experienced crew is looking forward to actually completing the 630 nautical mile race. This is Taylor's fourth boat by this name since 1985 and all have notched up some very credible results. This MBD 36's record includes placing first in division in last year's Sydney Gold Coast race, first in the VYC Range Series and first on IMS in the Portsea Hastings race, all in the same year.
