Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race 2023 - Tenacity Conquers All

The 78th Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race will go down in history as a relentlessly demanding test of determination, as well as physical and mental resilience for the 103 yachts taking part. For the overall winner, Tasmanian yacht Alive, preparation and strategy, along with experience and local knowledge, were key to victory in 2023. The fleet faced some of the most unpredictable conditions seen in recent years along the 628-nm course, and the unwavering tenacity of offshore sailors and their capacity to summon their deepest reserves all the way to the finish came to the fore once again. The 100 ft maxi LawConnect claimed Line Honours. Organised by the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia in conjunction with the Royal Yacht Club of Tasmania, Rolex has partnered the iconic Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race since 2002. Now in its 78th edition, the annual event is internationally renowned as one of the most arduous rites of passage in offshore sailing, and is a cornerstone of the Swiss watchmaker’s elite yachting partnerships.

Can the 8 minute wrap up video shown during the trophy presentation be posted as a separate video on this channel. There is no audio in the 8 minute segment on the CYCATV video of the trophy presentation. It's really disappointing to not be able to hear the accompanying audio which I am sure that the audience at the presentation would have heard.

Kudos to the cameramen and editors!

[@OurLadyDefiant]

Such a wild race! Thanks for letting us watch all the way from San Francisco!

[@DavideBesana-cartoonist]

Bellissimo come tanti filmato Rolex.E anche piuttosto istruttivo, a guardare questi yachts arrivare a Hobart nella bufera si impara molto sul giusto setting per far andare avanti la barca senza rompersi il naso. Grazie!

[@gerardboorsma3418]

How these 100 footers nicely went around all that bad weather, by going further offshore. Not much upwind stuff for them...

[@aeronautekBC]

Crazy! But, looks rewarding.

Must have nerves of steel 🤗

Wow nice video Sydney to Hobart

[@Atorganic8]

The last boat is finishing now...🎉

[@chrispy104k]

Great coverage. Looking forward to the 2024 edition.

[@brucewatson3768]

Very hard race...kept on thinking that the breeze must ease. But it didn't! That's sailing! The clip doesn't show the sea state in Bass Strait which was big and breaking. To those who made the call and headed for Eden-wise decision!

[@jodywade5617]

The narrator in the end forgot to say its just plain fun sailing!

[@Clockworksailing]

The cat should get a prize as the first non-human crew.

[@goodshipkaraboudjan]

One bloke did it single handed with his dog, not the first time either.

[@giuseppelombardo2266]

Very beautiful cup in the World.

[@user-mc6tr1vp2v]

Wow. That was a lot of editing.

[@gilray1977]

Great footage but my attention span is longer than 3 ~ 4 seconds. Not one piece of footage angle lasting more than a few seconds drives me nuts. I thought the 80's 'MTV video' thing was played out in the 80's ?

How many “Submariners” were walloped against bulkheads and winches. Or snapped off and gone over board after a losing battle with a winch handle. That would have been a race to wear the old Casio G-Shock as a first choice. Then, like F1 drivers, slip into the “Yachtmaster” or “GMT Master ll” for the prize giving ceremonies……
