Warrior Won

Warrior Won

 

Chris Sheehan returns after placing 47th in the 2017 race with his former Warrior Won. The American updated in 2019 to a TP52, the former Bad Pak. With his Connecticut-based team, Sheehan won the 238nm Stamford-Vineyard Race in 2020. In 2022, he won the RORC Caribbean 600 and the Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division of the Newport Bermuda race, taking monohull line honours in the process. Some of those crew from his wins are aboard again, including tactician, Richard Clarke, a Canadian four-time Olympian and Volvo Ocean Race winner. A couple of handy Australians, Ben Lamb and Mal Parker, are also aboard.
