Profile

Owner Norm Howard will be coming around from South Australia for the seventh time to compete in the Sydney Hobart race. No mean feat as each Christmas she sails 3000 miles. One Of the most consistent place getters in South Australian waters, she was designed by Laurent Giles of England and built by R T Searles and Sons of Port Adelaide. She will be easily recognisable to the public because of a blue hull.
