SBS Sports Reporter Nick Vindin competed in the 2013 Sydney to Hobart on board Southern Excellence II.
In his first ever off shore race Nick filed reports nightly for the World News Australia bulletin and also for online.
Here is a video blog capturing some of the best moments during Southern Excellence II's 71 hour journey to Constitution Dock.
No news yet as to weather Nick will be lining up for this year's edition of the race, although after a 12th placed finish (out of 94 yachts) from his first attempt maybe he will.
