Profile

This big steel yacht is making its third trip to Hobart but this time in a new guise as owner Jim Bridgland has fitted a taller mast and re-rigged her as a cutter.  This should greatly enhance her performance as previously she was somewhat undercanvassed and her low placings are no reflection on the skill and determination with which she has been sailed.
