Profile

This tiny yacht has the distinction of being the smallest entry in the race. She had competed in three Queenscliff to Sydney races and three Sydney Hobart races and was a starter in the last Sydney Noumea Race. Unfortunately damaged gear caused her retirement in this race. She was built in 1949 to a design by Scrivener and has been sailed unremittingly since then. Today her best performance was in the last Queenscliff Sydney race when she got third placing, although she has had success in local offshore events in Victoria
