Ciao Bella

Ciao Bella

 

This is Ciao Bella’s maiden Rolex Sydney Hobart. Since Karl Onslow purchased the Hanse 505, he and the crew have contested the CYCA’s Ocean Pointscore and Short Ocean Pointscore. Onslow contested the drawn out fluky 2022 Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race, but along with many others, retired. Headed to Hamilton Island Race Week and finished fifth in division. Crew for 2022 Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race is a happy mix of experienced offshore races and newer recruits.
