Sailors With Disabilities
Sailors With Disabilities scored a PHS win in 2006 Sydney Mooloolaba and a second in the inaugural Sydney Mackay Yacht Race in the same year. In 2007, Sailors with Disabilities finished 13th in the PHS division of the Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and was one of five competitors who took on the Audi Sydney Mackay Yacht Race and finished with a win in the PHS Division.
This specially designed 54-footer has contested every east coast regatta and offshore race since being launched in 2000. With their previous boat, Pescud and his crew won PHS Division A of the storm battered 1998 Sydney Hobart. Sailors With Disabilities also holds the monohull circumnavigation of Australia record.
