Profile

A welcome visitor from WA, this will be the first Hobart for this Phil Curran design built in Airex foam. She is best known for her fine 5th overall in the 1979 Parmelia Race from England. She also competed in the tragic 1979 Fastnet and performed incredibly with no damage or gear failure. Although this will be the first Hobart for the crew, they too are very experienced and specialise in long distance sailing.
