Fidelis is a boat with a stellar and sound provenance. Her story is well documented through several books and many articles. Her sparkling race record began in New Zealand, and then as the line honours winner of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race in 1966. The race winning performance continues to this day with harbour sailing, another five completed S2H races, many trips to Lord Howe Island, and races to the Solomon Islands, Tasmania, Queensland and NZ. Although her race record is important she is a very stable and safe ocean sailing yacht. She remains a "Greyhound" but is equally at home in cruising mode and is an easily handled vessel!

J109 "Going to Red" beating to windward had a fine line to thread the gap between Cape 31 Shootgun and the Corbt 37 Impetuous on day two of racing of Cork Week 2024. Race 6 ended up being the trickiest race of the day with the wind getting light and variable towards the top mark before a 30 degree shift on the last beat turned the race on it head. The race committee did a good job to finish the IRC 1 boats at the top mark to limit the damage from the variable winds. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024
