Profile

Scoring a 10th overall in the 20 Year Veteran Division last year, Huon Chief was quite well-known it is time and built in Tasmania of Huon Pine – hence the name. Under the guidance of Hedley Calvert, this boat won the 1975 Australian One Ton Cup, and a place in the Tasmanian Southern Cross Cup team the same year, when she was a top IOR racing yacht. The yacht is now racing in IMS under the guidance of Andrew Hay.
