AAPT

 

A second consecutive line honours win in this race might be a tall order for skipper Sean Langman this year given his main opposition, Skandia and Konica Minolta, are 30 feet longer but he can never be written off as a chance. This heavily modified 66-foot ‘skiff’ which finished 3rd across the line in the 2003 Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race will be raced hard with a crew of six.
