This is a Tasman Seabird design as described elsewhere in this issue, with the only alteration to the original design being the dog-house which was added to give extra protection to the helmsman. Trevor Gowland, of Anitra fame, built her and she was completed in May of this year just before he left for the Honolulu Race. Since then she has taken part in a Lion Island Race and a Montague Race and was good enough to get third place in both these starts. A very auspicious beginning for a beautiful yacht.
