Black Jack and Wild Oats XI both hit the water shaping up for the first race since their respective modifications. The CYCA Cabbage Tree Island Race will be held on Friday November 8 with a record fleet heading north up to Cabbage Tree Island just off the northern entry to Port Stephens.

With InfoTrack also entered in the race, we will see three of the five supermaxi yachts competing in the record fleet of 67 entries for this leadup race to the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race.
