Profile
At 97-feet in length, Canon is the largest yacht in the fleet, and one of the largest yachts ever entered. Canon’s crew list reads like a who’s who of ocean racing, with 49 Fastnet and 9 Whitbread/Volvo Ocean Races between them, and three currently competing with Team GBR in Auckland. Their experience makes this boat Shockwave’s greatest threat for line honours.
