Wauquiez 45s makes quick tracks to Hobart

Following the recent Sydney to Hobart race, we were fortunate to speak with Rod West on his experience sailing his Wuaquiez Centurion 45s 'Esprit'. 

"We had a GREAT race with the boat performing brilliantly. We were 3rd in our Division for much of the race but I blew my big spinnaker and dropped off the pace a little. These boats are outstanding. Strong, sea-kindly, and a delight to sail even as we surfed down the big swells during the gail conditions at 19kn!"

"It was my 8th Sydney-Hobart, but I have to say I have NEVER done it in a more well-behaved and sea kindly boat. We beat many much newer and sportier boats than I expected. They are a classy and very safe yacht!"
