With barely two weeks remaining before ‘The Big Turn Right’ on Boxing Day, a number of the grand prix performers – including Black Jack, CQS, Wild Oats XI and Ichi Ban – were to be seen offshore in training and work-up mode today, enjoying perfect sailing conditions.

The Bow Caddy team sent their aerial camera out to capture the last yacht to return through the Heads as she headed into the harbour in the late afternoon sun.
