The latest from Race 6, the Rolex Sydney Hobart

22 yachts competing in race 6 of the Audi Centre Sydney Blue Water Pointscore, the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, have crossed the finish line at Constitution Dock. Seven boats remain at sea.  The light wind on the Derwent River this morning may slow the next fleet of boats that are expected to finish this morning. 

  • In the IRC and ORCi handicap categories, the top overall placings are now provisionally final, with Matt Allen's Ichi Ban taking both categories from Zoe Taylor's Cookson 12 Grace O'Malley.  Stay up to date with the divisional positions on the Results page of the official website. 
  • Grace O'Malley is currently leading the PHS handicap category, but that result is far from settled as Gun Runner is only 27 minutes behind on predicted corrected time, with 67 miles to the finish.
