    The grand old dame of the Sydney to Hobart fleet...Hamilton Island Wild Oats...is chasing a 10th line honours win when the race begins tomorrow


    The supermaxi was previously named Wild Oats XI, and last took part in 2019.

    She's the oldest of the four supermaxis in this year's race, has undergone changes to her sails which skipper Mark Richards says make her very fast, especially downwind.
