In what is shaping up to be a tight sprint to River Derwent between first and second place, super maxi Scallywag has lost pace following some early sail drama sydneytohobart

More Sydney to Hobart crews made the heartbreaking call to retire from the race on Tuesday, as Black Jack led the remaining yachts in a sprint towards the finish line.

“The boat is going pretty well,” skipper Grant Wharington reported overnight. “We keep up with the 100-footers except when close reaching. When the breeze drops down it will be interesting to see who makes it across and who doesn’t.” Just 52 of the 88 boats who left Sydney are still racing with a number of boats now limping to Hobart after retirement.
