Sydney Hobart: Race to Heaven

We start 2026 with a very special episode of the Crewulante18 Podcast. In episode 259, ‘Winning the Sydney Hobart is Heavenly’, we chat with Pablo Torrado, who has had a dream debut in one of the toughest and most legendary ocean races in the world: the Rolex Sydney Hobart. The Galician sailor tells us from the inside how to win a division in a 628-mile race marked by wind, cold and extreme demands, and what it means to debut with victory in the great event in the southern hemisphere. A start to the year to the rhythm of the ocean and great sea stories, with the direction and presentation of Jaume Soler Albertí.
