Profile
This will be the 7th trip for this veteran S&S 34, formerly Zilvergeest III. Boats of this name sailed in many Hobarts under the late Alan Murray. An S&S 34 won in 1969 (Morning Cloud), and the design is outdated but they are still fine sea boats. The crew is experienced, the skipper with 19 Hobart's and could find his way blindfolded and may have noticed that 'Biscuits' Arnott has come out of his tin again for another go on a small yacht.
