Profile
Since taking line honours in last year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart and more than 30 other races since then, including the Kong Kong to Vietnam Race, Wharington has lightened and modified his 98-foot super maxi. He will sail with a reduced crew of 14 to Hobart in an attempt to achieve a second consecutive line honours win. Arch rival Konica Minolta (Zana), is regarded as the major threat to Wharington’s ambitious plan.
