Profile

This contender for the 1962 America's Cup was converted to ocean racing a few years ago. Now owned by Bernard Lewis and skippered by 'Twelves' Kellett, the old girl has found a new lease of life and has been performing quite creditably. Gretel won the CYCA winter point score last season and she was first to finish in the 79 Montague Island race
