Profile
This is a 43' Van de Stadt that has barely hit the water. She has no form to date. She is a fractional rig which suggests that this Tasmanian is state-of-the-art. A good result can also be expected from her crew. John Burton is a Master Mariner who very actively sailed his former craft, Thylacine, and Lester Nibbs is one of Tasmania's most experienced ocean racers. Trump Card will have a large local following, and if she isn't afflicted by commissioning problems, she could well come up trumps.
