The fleet of 103 is battling to plough through choppy seas...with winds now turning light - making for a challenging start to the 628-nautical mile classic.
LawConnect has officially made it out of the Sydney Heads first... with rival supermaxis Scallywag and Andoo Comanche following close behind.
Drama unfolded when Comanche flew a protest flag, accusing Scallywag of tacking too close to her as the pair made their way out.
If Comanche's protest is upheld, Scallywag will need to complete a 720 penalty turn.
