Profile

Built to the design of Robert Clark, on the Huon in Tasmania, Caprice raced in these waters with success. Brought to Sydney by Bill Northam in 1957 she was fourth in the 1958 Sydney Hobart. Now owned by Gordon Ingate, she has resumed regular ocean racing and should do well, especially to windward in the light airs.
