Bad Habits is a Gary Mull designed sloop built in New Zealand and launched in 1982. She was a member of the N.Z. team for the 1982 Clipper Cup. Her most recent claim to fame is line honours in the 1984 Whangarei to Noumea race. There is a lot of long-distance sailing experience on board, and this race should be a sprint for the crew. The boat has potential downwind and if the conditions are right she'll do well.
