Profile

This yacht makes a return to the Hobart field after 12 years. A famous old girl, Caprice of Huon represented Australia in the Admiral's Cup on two occasions with creditable results. she has won just about every ocean race on the calendar except the Hobart. Now owned by Bob Eltringham and crewed by a cruising fraternity, Caprice will probably sail down the nostalgia track of the course.
