This Farr 42 footer will be starting in her fourth Hobart, with a depressing record so far – last in 1978 (50% penalty fixed that up, 119th in '79 and retired with a broken rudder in 1980. In 1981 she achieved a 2nd in the Melbourne Hobart. We have not had any current form for her; it might be about time that these Victorians from Sandringham got their seaboots pulled up.
