Profile

A Ben Lexcen design originally owned by Alan Bond, Apollo II will start in her ninth Hobart this year. A member of the Australian 1973 Admiral's Cup team, she has since been confined to racing in Victorian waters where success has come often. This is the third race for her owner Becher and he will drive her hard.
