Profile
The 1984 Hobart saw Southern Cross featured in a very wet drama after her backstay pulled away, taking part of the stern with it. The next Hobart saw her finish 68th across the line, 44th on handicap. Recently she has been performing well in CYCA summer races. If the crew and yacht can continue with this trend, she should perform well against a strong fleet of Farr 40's.
