This large cutter, originally designed to rate at ten metres by Laurent Giles, was prominent in Harbour and offshore racing under the hand of the late F J Palmer in the 1950s. She raced to Hobart in 1955 snatching line honours from "Kurrewa IV". She was extensively altered before going to New Guinea though she never raced offshore again, and could still be a challenge for line honours.
