Profile
The ‘Green Machine’ was the unlucky winner of the Bondi and return division in last year‘s race when she broke her boom; that race was to be her owner Jack Rooklyn’s last Hobart effort. Spurred by a good performance during the Clipper Cup this year, Jack intends to finish on a high note by getting first across the line this year.
