Profile

This yacht will be one of the top contenders for the overall prize. This Ed Dubois design was rushed into the water for the Australian Admiral’s Cup trials, but lack of time and preparation counted against her although at times she showed blistering speed. Owner ‘Squizzy’ Taylor is one of Victoria's top helmsmen, and with his hot crew she will be one to watch carefully, especially in light winds. Taylor previously owned successful yachts Concubine and the Victorian Southern Cross Cup team member Moonshadow.

Member of the VIC Southern Cross Cup team.
