As I am waking up, looks like WOXI is smashing her old record for least time. Maybe I am looking at the tracker wrong.

WoXi finished at 0723 to break her own record by 15 odd minutes and gave her six line honours victories, possibly her second handicap and her second treble of (LH/Overall/RR).

I think that makes her disputably the greatest ever Syd-Hob boat. Only Morna aka Kurewa IV with seven line honours could also claim that title. I don't know if Morna ever set a race record, she most certainly never won on handicap.

During the night Living Doll (rudder) and Primitive Cool (mainsail) withdrew.

Current handicap leader is Jazz..
