Profile

This yacht was designed for the Hobart race in 1947 by Robert Clark and has since competed five times in all. Her best performance to date being third in 1951. The owner, J Colquhuon, has raced her consistently both on the harbour and offshore. She has won one Montague Island Race and three consecutive Bird Island Races. She was built in Hobart by Jock Muir, possibly the finest exponent of the era of boat building in Australia today. Originally a sloop, she was given a cutter rig in 1958. She will be racing with a new crew this year and her progress will be watched with interest.
