Quantum Racing

 

Sydney yachtsman Ray Roberts has enjoyed a stellar year with his DK46 including winning the Scotchman’s Series at Skandia Geelong Week, an IRC overall win in the Sydney Mooloolaba Race and an IRC win at Hamilton Island. One trophy that has eluded Roberts is the Tattersall’s Cup and he and his top crew want that rectified so they’ve chartered a Melbourne Cookson 50, which revels in typical Rolex Sydney Hobart conditions of reaching and running, for this race and the next 12 months.
