Profile

This Tasmanian 30-footer is a Peter Joubert design and has done three previous Hobarts coming 56th in 1983, retired 1984, 102nd in 1985. Owner Donald Colbourn who built her, did the 1947 and 1948 races. She is of a similar design to 1981 winner Zeus II. Her preferred sailing point is to windward in hard conditions. Thus her crew can gain some satisfaction from the least pleasant weather.
