Profile
Sister to Quiver IV, crack UK ocean racer designed in England by Peter Nicholson, this yacht is one of the favourites for the race, both the line honours on handicap. She has a most experienced crew, will be hard driven all the way, and further has the distinction of being a member of Australia's 1967 Admiral's Cup team.
