Profile

This beautiful ketch designed by Alan Payne, was built in 1957 at Metung, from whence she derived her name. She was originally designed as a cruising yacht and so was her counterpart Solo from the same drawing board, so it will be seen that this is no criterion. This vessel has cruised at length on the Great Barrier Reef and has performed successfully in races on the Gippsland Lakes.
