AAPT
A third consecutive line honours win in this race might be a tall order for skipper Sean Langman this year given the tough competition from the two canting keeled Reichel Pugh’s, the 60-footer Wild Joe and the 66-footer Wild Oats.
Half of Langman’s crew of ten will be young sailors who have signed up for some offshore training from this highly experienced skipper who has taken line honours in all Australian east coast races and finished second over the line in the 2002 and 2004 Rolex Sydney Hobart Races.
Langman is currently co-designing a new 98-foot super skiff with Andy Dovell and is planning to launch the new boat in time for this year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart.
