Although a CYCA boat, a UK crew lead by John Liddell will campaign the consistent performer Kioni in the 2006 Rolex Sydney Hobart. Having completed Fastnet and many other local events, this will be crew’s first Rolex Sydney Hobart and they report Kioni is optimised and ready to take on the notorious stretch of water sometimes referred to as ‘the paddock’.
