The Gambler is one of many Farr 40's in this year's race. She retired last year after doing something that yachts are not supposed to do, and that is a 360° roll. It is hoped that this year she will confine her flying to upright manoeuvres. Perhaps the experience gained last year will be of value, and it is expected that she will be amongst the front runners in the 'Farr 40' division.
