Profile

An Adams design launched in 1980, The Newcastle Flyer is based in Lake Macquarie. She was 14th across the line in her maiden Hobart (61st overall) and did not go down last year. She gained line honours in this year's Montagu Island Race. She has an experienced crew (one member will be doing his 16th Hobart), and she will perform well in the right conditions.
