Profile
The Roperunner is a Farr 2-tonner launched in 1980 and unlucky not to make the New Zealand 1981 Admiral's Cup team. She did represent her country in the last Southern Cross Cup. She is now owned by Lesley Green, who formerly owned the successful 3/4-tonner, Matika II, and has a crew for this Hobart Race with some good depth of experience.
