This year's Sydney to Hobart yacht race will proceed with COVID-19 measures in place following Tasmania's decision to open borders to New South Wales, the race organisers said on Wednesday.
The Cruising Yacht Club of Australia confirmed the Boxing Day start of the race with a 100-strong fleet following"a lengthy period of consultation with state governments, health authorities and other key stakeholders.""We are thrilled to have so many yachts participating this year, particularly given the general uncertainty and necessary restrictions placed on many sporting events in Australia over the past six months," CYCA commodore Noel Cornish said in a statement.
