Sailing success
Maritimo 11 has won line honours in the Ocean Racing Club of Victoria's 50th anniversary Melbourne to Hobart Yacht Race in a time of 2 days 1 hour 22 minutes and 2 seconds. Michael Spies skippered the 54-foot Schumacher to victory in a race which tested the resilience and patience of the entire fleet, but none more so than the Maritimo crew. The team expected to line up on the start line of the Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race on the Maritimo TP52 but experienced boat damage on the trip south to Sydney. This win is a demonstration of the never say die attitude and belief in the competitiveness of their boat and their highly experienced crew.
