It was a quiet start to the Ponant Sydney Noumea Race, with the fleet the leaving Sydney Harbour in a light and variable breeze. Grant Wharington and Adrian Seiffert’s Wild Thing 100 (with her new supermaxi size rig) led the fleet of three down the harbour on a close reach, before turning upwind past South Head and straightlining northeast for Noumea. Jon Linton’s Llama II and Peter Elkington’s Pacman followed soon after, the latter racing double-handed with Scott Cavanough.
