Profile

As Sagacious IV, this Farr One Tonner won the 1985 Sydney to Hobart, going on to win the Sydney to Mooloolaba race and Hamilton Island Race Week in 1986. Now owned by Hobart yachtsman Ian Smith, the boat enjoys sponsorship from the Sheraton Hotel, adjacent to Constitution dock where the Sydney-Hobart race fleet docks. The sponsorship enabled Smith to campaign the yacht in the Sydney to Gold Coast Regatta finishing fifth overall and second in Division A.
