This yacht is possibly the most famous in Australia. Designed by William Fife, one of the greatest designers of all time, and built by Morrison and Sinclair in Sydney, in 1912, the fact that she has been racing consistently and hard during all those years pays the highest tribute to both the designer and builder. She has competed in eight Sydney Hobart races, winning the Illingworth cup for line honours six times. However, her best performance on handicap was in 1946 when she was placed third to Christina and Saga. But other successes during her long life would be too numerous to mention. She was given a modified rig for last year's race but on the second night out she withdrew from the race owing to a few leaks. Originally known as Morna, her name was changed in 1954 when purchased by her present owners, the Livingston brothers from Victoria. One of the glamour boats of the fleet, this 47 year old cutter will be competing for the ninth time and will undoubtedly put up a great tussle for line honours and/or a win.
