Renegade was designed and built by her owner to One Ton Cup specifications.  Completely untuned and untried in the 1968 race she finished middle of the field only eight weeks after being launched.  After further tuning and some slight modifications Renegade lost to Rainbow II by only half-point the right to represent New Zealand in the European One Ton Cup series which Rainbow II won.  After further successes in local N.Z. racing ,name at the top of this year's results will be no surprise.
