Profile

Designed by Alan Payne, of Tasman Seabird and 12-metre fame, and built by C J Bull, of Metung, Victoria, this yacht is competing in her seventh Hobart race.  Her best effort was a fifth in 1957 and her new owner will be looking for moderate to fresh reaching conditions to make full use of her waterline length.
