Time: 2 days, 22 hours, 54 minutes, 33 seconds

At exactly 11:54:33 Hobart time (00:54:33 GMT, 01:54:33 Italian time), #maserati became the fourth craft to cross the finish-line in the 71st edition of the Rolex Sydney-Hobart Yacht Race, one of the most grueling events on the international sailing calendar. The Italian VOR 70 covered the 628-mile distance between Australia and Tasmania in 2 days, 22 hours, 54 minutes, 33 seconds.

Line honors went to the American 100’ Comanche in a time of 2 days, 8 hours, 58 minutes, 30 seconds. She was followed into Hobart by the Australian yacht Ragamuffin 100 (2 days, 19 hours, 47 minutes, 30 seconds) and the American craft Rambler 88 (2 days, 19 hours, 51 minutes, 42 seconds).
