With the 80th Hobart run and celebrations of a small boat year still ringing in our ears, John Curnow of Sail-World and Crosbie Lorimer of Bow Caddy Media shared thoughts on how the race might evolve.
Their chat ranges across divisions for fully-crewed and double-handers, the inevitability of foiling yachts in the race and the multihull community’s longstanding call to join the party.
Bow Caddy Media also discussed the pluses and minuses of the double-hander/fully crewed divisions with to two very experienced ocean racers, while they were in Hobart.
Ed Psaltis of Midnight Rambler discussed the fully crewed perspective, while Lincoln Dews of Toucan addressed the double-handers take. We hope to bring you those interviews in the weeks ahead.
