After an extremely tense few hours, Chutzpah have been given the ultimate title

Bruce Taylor, CYCA Member, veteran of 32 Rolex Sydney Hobarts, and now racing his sixth incarnation of Chutzpah, has been declared Overall Winner of the Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race 2018.

Taylor and crew had a very tense few hours throughout the day, as two-time Overall Winner, Shane Kearns' Komatsu Azzuro, looked set to steal the win from their grasp.

The crew had done enough, however during the epic 384-nautical-mile coastal classic to hold Komatsu Azzurro at bay, and claim their first major offshore racing title.
