2014 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race

The 2014 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, sponsored by Rolex, was the 70th annual running of the "blue water classic" Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. As in past editions of the race, it was hosted by the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia based in Sydney, New South Wales. As with previous Sydney to Hobart Yacht Races, the 2014 edition began on Sydney Harbour, at 1pm on Boxing Day (26 December 2014), before heading south for 630 nautical miles (1,170 km) through the Tasman Sea, past Bass Strait, into Storm Bay and up the River Derwent, to cross the finish line in Hobart, Tasmania.

Line honours were claimed by Wild Oats XI in a time of 2 days, 2 hours, 3 minutes and 26 seconds. It was the yacht's eighth win, breaking the record for most line honours victories. The previous record had been set by Morna/Kurrewa IV with 7 victories in 1960.
