The Sydney Hobart Yacht Race Has a Boat-Size Absence
Wild Oats XI, a crowd favorite that is one of the most successful yachts in the event’s history, will not compete this year pending repairs and rethinking.
By Kimball Livingston
When the hundred-foot Maxi yachts hit the starting line for the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, one absence will loom as a powerful presence.
There will be no Wild Oats XI, and Wild Oats XI is more than a boat.
Speculation is inevitable when a crowd favorite is missing. The report from the boat’s skipper, Mark Richards, is straightforward, but it won’t put an end to wondering. Of the boat and its owners, Richards said: “We had a structural failure in the bow and are having that addressed. The Oatley family are re-evaluating how to progress forward in our sport and they have just decided to have a break this year while they work it out.”
That resonates because in this race, Wild Oats XI has taken line honors (first boat to cross the finish line) nine times, set records three times and, beyond that, won the hearts of Australians.
“Kids 6, 7, 8 years old know the name,” Richards said.
No one dares use the past tense in speaking of Wild Oats XI, but questions arise when a boat that is synonymous with the Sydney Hobart, and that has been rush-repaired in the past to make a race, is absent.
Last year, the boat finished fourth at the Sydney Hobart after a sail ripped underway. It was in August of this year during a race in Australia’s Whitsunday Islands that the hull failure occurred.
In 2005, Bob Oatley commissioned the build of Wild Oats XI and set the standard — the boat swept all honors in its first Sydney Hobart race, only two weeks after launch. The boat would win line honors seven more times before Oatley’s death in 2016. His son Sandy, also passionate about sailing, carried on.
“I’d love to get one more crack,” Richards said. “I guess we’ll know more next year.”
Steve Quigley got his first crack as a crewman in 2012 and felt “daunted” joining the famously accomplished crew. Then, “We were first over the finish line, we set another course record, and we won our division on handicap,” he said. “I should have retired from racing then and there, but it wasn’t until I went walking around Hobart in my team shirt, with strangers asking for autographs, that I understood that Wild Oats XI had become the people’s boat.”
What next? Richards said, “The boat is still very capable.”
Quigley, a naval architect, was part of a team responsible for a bold 2015 redesign that bought the boat some time. In Quigley’s recollection, “I was the one in the meeting who had to tell Bob, ‘You may have the fastest Maxi in the world, but if you want to keep it that way, let’s chop it in half,’” he said.
Then they chopped it twice.
To respect the 100-foot maximum limit for the Sydney Hobart race, length was removed from the stern and added in a new bow section that accommodated bigger sails. Wild Oats XI.2 proved effective across the wind range, and success continued as the boat won line honors again in 2018.
Imagining a 2024 race, Quigley said, “Given the right combination of wind strength and direction, we could find a window to win, but the newer boats have a wider window.”
Design DNA in 2023 is different from 2005. Boats are now wider, yielding stability to carry taller masts and more sail. The maximum width of Wild Oats XI, 17 feet, is 45 percent less than LawConnect, winner of the most recent lead-up regatta series and yet not the newest or widest.
Sandy Oatley did not respond to a request for comment. More than one member of his crew spoke of the team as a “family,” so any decision is charged with emotion: Do you throw money at an unlikely Wild Oats XI.3, or would it satisfy if the boat slipped into the role of sentimental favorite and long shot?
The citizens of Hobart cheer for all, but it doesn’t hurt to arrive on Wild Oats XI. Andrew Henderson, part of the crew since 2005 and a 25-race veteran, said: “Anyone who can get a boat to Hobart deserves respect. The town offers the warmest reception in Australia. All of us understand how special that is.”
This year, however, after many years racing, he said, “I’m spending Christmas with the kids.”

SUPERMAXI YACHT WILD OATS XI GETS THE CHOP
Bob Oatley and Mark Richards make the first cut into the forward sections of the all-conquering supermaxi, Wild Oats XI. (Image credit: Andrea Francolini)
Australia’s most successful ocean racing yacht, Bob Oatley’s 30-metre supermaxi, Wild Oats XI, is 30-metres no more.
The sleek, silver-hulled beauty literally got the chop today at the hands of Bob Oatley and skipper Mark Richards.
Armed with a high-revving chainsaw, the pair took to the carbon fibre hull just forward of the mast, and by the time the job was finished one hour later, 10-metres of Wild Oats XI’s bow had been lopped off.
It was the first stage of a three month program that will see the yacht back to being 30-metres long, but with a completely different profile: all part of a plan to bring a new lease of life to the record-breaking, 10-year-old yacht and make her more competitive against more recent supermaxi designs.
In a few days the hull will be shortened even more when an additional two metres is cut from the stern.
“This is exciting” Richards said when sharing the first chainsaw cut with Bob Oatley. “I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about it when we started, but this is the future for the old girl. She will be an even better yacht when we have finished. The more we cut the better I felt.”
However, legendary Australian Olympic gold-medal winning sailing coach, Victor Kovalenko, did say that watching the beautiful yacht being carved up was “painful”, then added that the pain would be forgotten once Wild Oats XI was sailing again.
The next part of the schedule for Wild Oats XI will see her trucked to the McConaghy’s boat building facility on Sydney’s northern beaches. Once there a new transom will be fitted where the stern has been cut off. Simultaneously, shipwrights will fit a completely new bow to the yacht – two metres longer than what was cut off today – so that she returns to the same overall length.
Much of the design work for the new-look Wild Oats XI has been done by the original designers, Reichel-Pugh, based in California, USA. By extending the bow forward the yacht will have considerably more buoyancy, a feature which all design testing indicates will make her considerably faster. She will also be lighter.
Wild Oats XI is recognised as the most successful yacht to have contested the Rolex Sydney Hobart Race over its 70-year history, and Mark Richards the most successful skipper. Since being launched in 2005 the supermaxi has secured an unprecedented eight line honours. She is also the only yacht to claim the triple-crown – line and handicap honours and a race record time – on two occasions … and take four consecutive line honours.
The new-look Wild Oats XI is scheduled to be sailing again in November.
There she goes! A 10-metre section of the bow of supermaxi Wild Oats XI is removed so the yacht can be remodelled for this year’s Rolex Sydney Hobart race.

Wild Oats XI: Bruised but not beaten
Published on December 16th, 2019 by Editor -->
Launched in 2005, the 100-foot Wild Oats XI is as much about the 628nm Sydney Hobart Yacht Race as family is about Christmas. The two go together, so the thought of the supermaxi not being on the start line for the 75th edition would have been a shocker.
But what’s more of a shocker is that she will be on the start line among the 164-boat fleet.
Having claimed line honors on 9 occasions, won on corrected time twice, and twice set a race record time, the yacht suffered major structural damage a little more than a month ago when its 45-metre high carbon fibre mast fractured at deck level, resulting in a large part of the deck structure failed.
Occurring during the 180-nautical mile Cabbage Tree Island race out of Sydney, the crew miraculously was able to stabilize the broken mast and reach shore before the yacht suffered any additional damage.
Subsequently, during the past five weeks Wild Oats XI has undergone a major rebuild at its dock in Sydney, an endeavor that was designed to have it ready for the race start on December 26.
This included replacing an 8 m x 3 m piece of the deck and fractured frames, and repairing the mast. At one stage during the mast repair specialist technicians worked around-the-clock for 4 days to ensure maximum strength was achieved.
Last week, when the supermaxi was back in one piece, it completed a successful test on Sydney Harbour and now takes the next step by undertaking a 24-hour offshore passage off Sydney so it meets one of the many qualification requirements for yachts entered in the Hobart race.
“We will be in full race mode and treat this passage as we would if we were racing,” said skipper Mark Richards. “The entire race crew will be on board, including our navigator, Juan Vila, who has just flown in from Europe.”
Richard revealed that Wild Oats XI will start in the Hobart race a remarkable 1200 kg lighter than it was last year when it took line honours in the classic.
“We have replaced two large daggerboards with a small, and considerably lighter, rudder just forward of the mast,” he explained. “The few trials we have done using this new appendage indicate that it will be an advantage when sailing upwind.” Damage photos from Adventures of a Sailor Girl :

Background : The 2019 fleet will be chasing line honours and the overall Tattersall Cup win in the 628nm Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race which starts December 26, 2019. From Sydney Harbour, the fleet sails out into the Tasman Sea, down the south-east coast of mainland Australia, across Bass Strait (which divides the mainland from the island State of Tasmania), then down the east coast of Tasmania. At Tasman Island the fleet turns right into Storm Bay for the final sail up the Derwent River to the historic port city of Hobart.

Wild Oats XI
The supermaxi yacht Wild Oats XI, owned by the Oatley family , is one of the fastest and most technologically advanced ocean racing yachts in the world. Her record in Australia¹s international offshore classic, the Rolex Sydney Hobart Race, is evidence of that.
This sleek, 30-metre (100ft) long ocean racing thoroughbred is undisputedly the most successful yacht in the 75-year history of the arduous event. Her helmsman, Mark Richards, is recognised as the race¹s most successful skipper.
Wild Oats XI¹s success went further in the most recent Hobart race when she claimed a record-breaking ninth win. Her line honours achievement in 2014 saw her beat the previous record of seven line honours which was achieved by Morna (later renamed Kurrewa IV) over 14 years ¬ between 1946 and 1960. Wild Oats XI claimed her eight line honours in just ten years.
Wild Oats XI was launched only a matter of days before her first Rolex Sydney Hobart race in 2005, yet she proved to be so fast that she blasted her way to a rare triple crown line honours, a race record time and victory on handicap. Her time for the 628 nautical mile course was 1 day, 18 hours, 40 minutes, and 10 seconds.
When launched, Wild Oats XI¹s ground-breaking design and construction included a radical and technically brilliant canting keel, a feature Bob Oatley pioneered into this form of ocean yacht racing. A canting keel means the keel is hinged on the underside of the yacht¹s amazing carbon fibre hull and controlled by a huge hydraulic ram so it can swing from one side to the other and increase stability. The hydraulic mechanism is so powerful it can lift a jumbo jet off the ground. It is manufactured using aviation grade steel.
With the 12-tonne, torpedo-shaped lead ballast bulb moved 40 degrees out to windward, Wild Oats XI enjoys an exceptional power-to-weight advantage over a conventional design. If she had a non-canting keel, Wild Oats XI would require an additional five tonnes in ballast to achieve the same level of stability. In that configuration she would be 20 percent heavier, and considerably slower.
Wild Oats XI family’s multi-million dollar cruiser destroyed in blaze at Sydney dock
An investigation has been launched after a multimillion-dollar boat went up in flames in an affluent Sydney suburb overnight.

Schoolgirl’s death ‘akin to execution’: court
Teacher charged over sex with student
A multimillion-dollar motor cruiser once owned by the family behind the Wild Oats XI yacht has been destroyed in a massive fire in Sydney’s north.
Emergency services were called to Woolwich Dock about 8.10pm on Saturday following reports of a boat fire.
NCA NewsWire understand the boat, Andiamo - which is estimated to be worth between $5 and $10 million - was once owned by Sandy Oatley, the son of the late Australian yachtsman and businessman, Bob Oatley.
The family is best known for owning the nine-time Sydney-Hobart-winning yacht Wild Oats XI.
Upon arrival, the boat was found to be fully engulfed in flames.
Firefighters worked for some time to extinguish the massive fire, a difficult task given the extent of the fuel load.
Fire and Rescue NSW Superintendent Adam Dewberry said the boat was filled with 4000 litres of diesel when the fire broke out.
“It took so long [to extinguish the fire] because it’s a large vessel, and we had no access onto the yacht itself, it just wasn’t safe to get on board,” he said.
Police have confirmed the fire is not being treated as suspicious.
There are no reports of any injuries.
The Oatley family have been spending time on Hamilton Island for the tourist hot spot’s annual race week, hosted from August 19 to 26.
They are celebrating 20 years of owning the iconic island destination, after the Oatley patriarch purchased the island in 2003 for $200 million.
It is understood two other famous boats usually docked at the Woolwich Dock - where the Oatley’s own the lease - Wild Oats XI and Andoo Comanche, were both docked on Hamilton Island at the time of the fire.
Law Connect - which came in second to Comanche in the 2022 Sydney to Hobart race - was moored at the
dock on Saturday night but was not damaged by the fire.
Officers attached to the Marine Area Command have commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the fire.
Anyone with information into the incident is urged to call police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Wild Oats XI returns in 2022 racing under a refreshed name, Hamilton Island Wild Oats . Mark Richards and crew recently returned to racing in the fluky 2022 Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race and finished third on Line Honours behind Andoo Comanche and Black Jack .
Wild Oats XI last competed in the Rolex Sydney Hobart in 2019 and finished third over the line, pipping SHK Scallywag by 38 seconds, enthralling onlookers. She took Line Honours in 2018 and crossed the line first in 2017 before moving to second on line to LDV Comanche following a protest. Damage caused early retirements in 2015 and 2016. In 2014, she beat Comanche to obtain her record eighth Line Honours victory, outdoing Kurrewa IV/Morna’s record seven, held since 1960. Wild Oats XI’s Line Honours win in 2018 extended that record tally to nine. Other highlights include historical triple victories of line/record/overall wins in the 2005 and 2012 Rolex Sydney Hobarts.
