Sydney Hobart 2025

Philpott

Cal 2-27 Dura Mater
Race starts on Boxing Day, which is the day after Christmas in Australia, on December 26.
Right now? It is 0732 pm Christmas Eve in California and 02:32 pm on Christmas Day in Australia. You figure out the math for when the race starts. It makes my head hurt and I ran out of fingers.

What happens when you put three singlehanders on a boat with a schooner captain and three other people and send them off on a race outa Sydney Australia? Dunno.

Dave Garman, Jim Quanci and John Wilkerson along with Andy Schwenk aboard John's Express 37 s/v Perplexity. Plus three other sundry people, maybe John's friends from Bainbridge Island. Don't know. But here are photos Andy sent from the race village.

The competition doesn't stand a chance against Perplexity's crew. Wild Thing? Feh!
