Terra Firma

 

The name Terra Firma lives on again - Nicholas Bartels steps up from his successful Sydney 47 to the Cookson 50 formerly known as Shogun. In this race last year, Terra Firma finished 15th overall and eighth in her division. With some talented sailors onboard and a strong crew, Terra Firma will be out to impress. In his former Sydney 47 Terra Firma, Bartels' best results include 7th in IRC Division 2 in 2009 Audi Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and 7th in Rolex Sydney Hobart 2008.
