The Goat II
Bruce Foye and Sebastian Bohm purchased the former Celestial (winner of the 2014 Land Rover Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race), last year and grappled with the 2015 Gold Coast race, their first major race, and finished 48th overall upon receiving a 70 minute penalty. Finished fifth at 2015 Airlie Beach Race Week against a small but hot fleet, was sixth overall in Division 1 and second in ORCi at the SSORC, then 34th overall and fourth in Division 2 in the Rolex Sydney Hobart, culminating in 10th overall in the Blue Water Pointscore. The Goat II was fourth in Division 1 at the Sydney Harbour Regatta in March, second to Ichi Ban at the 2016 NSW IRC Championship and second to Ichi Ban at the 2016 NSW IRC Championship. Foye is not short on experience or a novice to victories, having won this race in 1991 and 1994, with the late Roger Hickman and Lance Peckman when they jointly owned Wild Rose, then known as Wild Oats. This is a proven boat and her crew have come to grips with it, so expect a good result.
