Profile

A steel yacht of Temptress design, she is fitted with alloy spars and rates well under R.O.R.C. Rule.

She finished well down in the 1968 Sydney-Hobart and she has since undergone considerable alterations which have greatly improved her windward sailing.  This has been evidenced by recent successes in local racing in Hobart and her crew are now looking towards handicap honours in Division 2.
