Profile
This is the second largest of the eleven Alan Payne designed yachts contesting the Hobart race this year. She has sailed up from Victoria four times previously for this event. Her best performance being fifth in the first attempt in 1957. At her best in moderate conditions, and will be really revelling in a free breeze, she should be well to the fore. With her relatively low rating could be driven into the prize list.
