Profile

Ted Kaufman's lovely sloop is now tuned and crewed to perfection following the keen competition in the Admirals Cup selection series. Last year in her second Hobart race start she was placed eighth and gained a third placing in the recent Montague Island Race. She performs best in light and moderate conditions, given which she could be up with the leaders and do very well on handicap.
