Salona

 

Designed by J & J Yacht Design and built by AD Boats, Salona has suffered its fair share of misfortune since its 2006 launch including suffering steering failure in her debut Hobart Race last year and breaking her mast in the Audi Sydney Southport back in March.  Owner Phillip King, who is hoping bad things don’t come in threes, has an impressive record, including winning Division A of the 1984 Sydney Hobart, the Adelaide to Robe Race in 1986, the Adelaide to King Island Race in 1989 and being South Australian Offshore Champion in 1989.
