Profile

This steel sloop is the successor to Stan Gibson's tiny Four Winds I which, at 27 ft. 4 in. (8.33m) overall, has the distinction of being the smallest yacht ever to race in the Sydney-Hobart.

Four Winds II is this year making her fifth trip to Hobart and while she is no racing machine she will be most ably crewed and sailed.
