Profile

This fine aluminium ketch is the largest yacht in the fleet and has every chance of line honours.  Given the right conditions, Huey Long could well better the race record he established in 1962 in the old "Ondine".  He has a highly experienced crew who have experience in the Buenos Aires-Rio, Bermuda and Trans Atlantic races.
