Wild Oats XI skipper Mark Richards is confident he has just about every base covered as he strives for a sixth Sydney to Hobart line honours victory and revenge against a boat described as a beast by its new skipper.Wild Oats XI has notched five firsts and two seconds in her seven-year history in the 628 nautical mile race, and is two victories off equalling the record of seven tallied by Morna/Kurrewa IV.Bob Oatley's boat trailed Investec Loyal - as it was known in 2011 - by just three minutes in a titanic race to get to Hobart first.Modifications to the boat have Richards convinced her weakness in light air has been eliminated and left her with no glaring deficiency in other conditions."We're confident we've got just about everything covered," Richards said.Monday, December 24, 2012
