A Swan 36 designed by Sparkman and Stephens, "Hotspur" is the latest thing in medium sized ocean racers.  Her fibreglass hull was moulded in Finland and shipped to Australia where it was completed.  She features solid venticular rigging designed to reduce windage and is fitted with Proctor spars and Tasked sails.

Launched in July 1969, :Hotspur" has four wins out of five starts and forms one of W.A.'s potent Southern Cross Cup team.
