Anthony Bell brings Sydney to Hobart record-holder back for 2026 race
- A decade after his last appearance in the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, Anthony Bell has unveiled a new Loyal boat to challenge for line honours in this year's race.
- But it's not a new boat — it's an old one.
- Bell was first to Hobart in 2011 with Investec Loyal and in 2016 with Perpetual Loyal, setting a then-race record in the latter race of one day 13 hours, 31 minutes and 20 seconds.
