Pretty Woman is a modified Farr45 owned by Richard Hudson and many of the crew are graduates of the RPAYC Youth Development program. Pretty Woman placed 15th overall for second in Division 2 in last year’s Sydney Hobart and won the IRC Corinthian division, a credit to the team. In the 2022 race, Hudson and crew placed 28th and second in Corinthian IRC after their 14th for third in Division 2 in 2021. In July this year, Pretty Woman placed second in Division 1 of the Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race. Hudson continues to blend the experience with younger sailors, allowing them to develop their offshore skills.
