The Currawong 30 is a classic Joubert design of the early 70’s. Since her launching in 1980 Saltpeta has raced successfully in the CYCA Long Ocean Point Score series and in the last year Sydney to Hobart. Her owner/skipper, who competed his first Hobart in 1960, and who was also sailed in the Fastnet and the Trans-Tasman, has an experienced crew who should give a good account of themselves this year.
