Profile
Navy One is owned and used by the RAN for Sail and Adventure training and sailed solely by serving Navy personnel. She regularly sails and races as part of the Navy’s sporting program for recreation and building resilience. This will be a fourth Hobart for the Navy on this boat. They placed 32nd in 2021 and won the Oggin Cup (awarded to the first armed services yacht on corrected time) from Gun Runner for a second year running.
Last year, Navy One placed 29th overall and won the PHS Corinthian York Trophy. In 2023, she won the Oggin Cup as the only Armed Forces entry. The Beneteau First 40 retired with a broken boom in 2022. The yacht is the former Lunchtime Legend when owned by Robbo Robertson and scored third in IRC Division 4 in the 2011 Rolex Sydney Hobart.
