Georgia Express

Georgia Express

 

Georgia Express, hull no. 1 of the Mumm36s, returns to the Hobart for a third time lucky, as she retired from her only two Sydney Hobarts to-date. Before Sebastian Hultin bought Georgia Express, she competed internationally, then spent the next years sailing in Queensland where she received a custom keel. Hultin purchased Georgia Express in April 2023 from Andrew Forbes who joined him and the crew from the Stella Polaris campaign and competed in the RSHYR 2023. Georgia Express has received several safety upgrades and is now ready to tackle another offshore season.
