Profile

This Doug Peterson design could easily provide Victoria with their first ever Hobart victory. Since launching in February 1978, this boat has been an instant success, winning the CYCA Bluewater Championship in the 1979/80 season, being a member of the winning NSW Southern Cross Cup team in 1979, and winning the 1980 West Coaster. This will be her third Hobart race; she was 26th in 1978 and 19th in 1979. A win would not surprise in any conditions, and her duel with sister ship Deception will be one of the race highlights.
