Broomstick

 

Broomstick has sailed around the world three times as an Open 60, including the Vendee Globe and Around Alone, but was lengthened to 66 feet by its Sydney owners Michael Cranitch, a CYCA Director and Ray Wallace.  A regular competitor in most CYCA offshore races, Broomstick will be looking for a top six finish.
