Another of the very popular East Coast 31 designs by Peter Cole, Storm Bay is one of the most successful of the class with many wins in her class and overall to her credit. Her best win was in the 1975 Sydney Brisbane and has recently been slightly modified to improve downwind performance. This crew features as navigator Magnus Halvorsen who with 25 Sydney Hobart Races to his credit, switches from a 79 footer (Kialoa) to a 31 footer this year and will probably find his quarters a little cramped.
