A minute’s silence for 2 dead sailors as the Sydney to Hobart race is set to begin Friday

  • Nick Smith and Roy Quaden were the two sailors who died in 2024 — the race’s first fatalities since six died in 1998. CYCA Commodore Sam Haynes said the sailor deaths will not be forgotten
  • Organizers also announced Wednesday that a group of 15 yachts will scatter rose petals off the coast of Bondi Beach in memory of the 15 lives lost during the Bondi terror attack on Dec. 14
