Profile

One of the few half tonners in this year's Sydney Hobart fleet, owner John Messenger has changed the name of this Dubois 31 from Madmen's Woodyard to Fuels Paradise - for no apparent reason. Racing with the CYCA offshore fleet last season, the yacht finished an excellent third overall in the Bluewater championship and first in division three.
