The first shots taken off Taroona of Ludde Ingvall's Nicorette. Seen here flying up the Derwent to arrive in Hobart after what was indeed, a very difficult Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.

This was the first race for Nicorette since the original boat was extended from 80 to 90 feet and relaunched in early December 2004. The original 80 footer had also claimed a line honours victory for owner skipper, Ludde Ingvall, in the 2000 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race.

Nicorette is indeed an incredible boat when one considers the quoted 13 knots boat speed from 6 knots of breeze, as the boat sailed up the Derwent.

A very happy and triumphant Ingvall.
