Anchors away for Launceston to Hobart race

The annual Launceston to Hobart Yacht Race (L2H) has set sail today (27th), featuring some of Tasmania’s best local sailors and yachts.

We know that Tasmania is home to some of the best sailing in the world, and this proud tradition continues with a 285 nautical mile race which trails around the North East and East Coast of Tasmania.

Competition is once again expected to be fierce this year, with a total of 24 yachts and more than 200 sailors taking part.

Tasmanians love nothing more than getting out and enjoying the best that our spectacular waterways have to offer - whether that is on a boat, in the water, or by dropping a line.

Yacht races over the Christmas and New Year period are a huge part of the Tasmanian way of life, so it is fantastic to see the L2H going ahead and I thank the local yacht clubs and organising committee for their hard work to make it happen.

Importantly, L2H race organisers have put a COVID Safety Plan in place to ensure a safe event for competitors and those supporting the race.

You can follow the race online at www.l2h-dssinc.org.au.
