PerfectBound Special Feature! Read the author, Rob Mundle's summary of the coroner's report and the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia investigation into the tragedy.
The Sydney to Hobart yacht race has become established as one of the world's major sporting events. The race in 1998 became one of the world's major sporting disasters with the tragic loss of six sailors, injuries to many others and damage to many boats. The search and rescue operation was more like the D-Day landing exercise. Its story leaves Saving Private Ryan in the shade. Had it not been for the superior skills in organisation and operation many more would have been lost.
