Toucan, sailed by Edward Curry-Hyde is the latest entry, who commented: "I see LHOR as a chance to experience a true ocean race with quite different routing challenges to a coastal race. Being based on the Pittwater, I really like that there’s no delivery required after the race. There’s also something special about approaching an island after some days at sea, and going around Ball’s Pyramid really adds to the adventure. Here’s hoping it's not at night. ![]()

As for the racing, my boat, Toucan, a Sun Fast 3300, has been highly refined for Double Handed offshore racing and has achieved some great successes in the major Australian races. For the LHOR, we are hoping to be racing in a competitive fleet of full-crewed and double-handed boats."![]()
