Profile

A modification of the Swan 46, Mirrabooka was designed to the new IMS measuring method and will rate much better when that is introduced to Australia. Owner/skipper John Bennetto will be sailing his 28th race to Hobart since 1947 and is looking forward to a fast but comfortable race. Altogether his Tasmanian crew has 40 Hobart races between them.
