Wallabies ace Kurtley Beale will join a host of Australian sports stars aboard Perpetual LOYAL in this year's Sydney to Hobart yacht race.
Beale is making his debut in the great race in the name of charity, hoping to raise funds to buy vital medical equipment for childrens hospitals.
"Looking at the commitment of other sportsmen and women across the years and the contribution they have made to the Humpty Dumpty and LOYAL Foundations, it is a team that I want to be part off," Beale said.
"I want to know I have made a positive contribution to childrens' lives."
Beale will join retired NRL star Anthony Minichiello, former Wallabies captain Phil Waugh and ex-Australian cricket skipper Michael Clarke on Perpetual LOYAL.
"The secondary challenge but also just as important for me is to test myself in a new arena," Beale said.
"I believe that as an athlete to keep improving you must continually test yourself both mentally and physically."
