Notes

^1 – Ragamuffin 52 were given a 20% penalty to be added onto their elapsed time by the International Jury due to breaching RRS Rule 19.2(b) in a collision with Ark323 at the start of the race in Sydney Harbour.
^2 – Mutual protest by both boats after a collision between them at the start of the race in Sydney Harbour. Cougar II was found to have failed as port tack boat to keep clear of Lupa of London but as both boats had retired no penalty could be applied.
