Profile

The best racing yacht result of this 1973 Knoop designed ½-tonner was a third in the 1976 Australian Half Ton Championships. Half tonners have won two of the last three Hobarts, so on that score she has a good chance in the right conditions. Her young crew have many ocean miles behind them, at least two having done more than 10,000 miles in races and delivery trips.
