Profile

This representative from the RAN and is a steel Alann Payne design, sister ship to Sylph VI, which did a few trips in years past. Nirimba was built by naval apprentices and launched in 1966. She was 72nd in 1973. She has no chance for any handicap result, but with a fresh breeze this crew will be making a race of it with many other yachts in the fleet. The Navy is always a welcome entrant.
