Clipper Ventures 5 Docks in Hobart - Rolex Sydney Hobart 2016 Crosbie Lorimer http://www.crosbielorimer.com
With so much emphasis placed on the top end of the fleet, we thought we would bring you the arrival in Hobart of the second last boat to arrive – Clipper Ventures 5.

The race is so much more than the ‘rock stars’…. It is about ordinary men and women competing in a race and their families making sacrifices around Xmas so that their loved ones can compete.

Here’s to all those families, especially the children who are so excited to see their parents again.
