TC 78 Oroton Drumfire wins PHS 1 at the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race

4 February 2025

The Truly Classic 78 “Oroton Drumfire” revelled again and won the 79th edition of the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race in PHS Class 1 for the second year!
An incredible performance for a yacht that was originally designed as an ocean-going perfor-mance cruising yacht.
Oroton Drumfire is built in the Netherlands in 2007 and is presently owned by an Australian Yachtsman.

Oroton Drumfire was showing excellent performance in the fierce and stormy conditions after the start in Sydney along the Southerly coast of New South Wales in Australia. From there to Bass Strait, conditions were shifty up to the finish in Hobart Tasmania, a race of 628 nautical miles.
 
The renowned Dutch Olympic and Volvo Ocean race sailor Carolijn Brouwer was part of the well trained and  experienced crew on Drumfire. Another iconic sailor who joined was the Australian youngest around the world sailor Jessica Watson. 

The Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race is one of the toughest Ocean Sailing Yacht Races and we as designers of the yacht are extremely pleased to see the yacht perform so well.
 
We congratulate the owners and Crew with this exceptional performance and result !
