We all know it takes a certain kind of sailor who wants to do the Sydney to Hobart race.

The conditions were frigging rough, and I just can’t imagine being on that crowded little thing going through those waves! But they are a hardy bunch!
Perhaps it’s a blessing in disguise that their headstay broke during the first night…. Photo by Andrea Francolini.
