Shepherd Centre
Dr Hugh Torode has continued his support for the Shepherd Centre once again by renaming his boat from Pelagic Magic to Shepherd Centre for this race. In the 2010 Rolex Sydney Hobart, Shepherd Centre finished fourth in IRC Division 4 and third in ORCi division 3 and in the 2011 Hobart, Shepherd Centre was scored DNF due to a failure to report at Green Cape (Sailing Instruction 44.1). The crew are hoping for another strong result in this race and are excited and proud to be representing the Shepherd Centre which assists 200 deaf children aged 0-5 years old, every year. It costs $15,000 per year per child of which 75% has to be generated through fundraising.
