Investec Loyal

Investec Loyal

 

Anthony Bell took sole ownership of Investec Loyal after last year’s Hobart race, and the boat has undergone a facelift and some body work. Determined to make the yacht perform to its full potential, Bell made modifications to the hull, keel and rig; and with new sails on order and some high-calibre crew added to the mix, Investec Loyal should give Wild Oats XI a run for her money in the line honours battle.
