Profile

Stuart McDonald previously raced Turkey Shoot and many of his crew will campaign Indian Pacific, which he bought in May this year, entering the Hobart race with the comment "we swapped our feather dusters for a feather headgear." Indian Pacific won the gale swept Sydney Hobart race in 1984 one of only 46 yachts out of 179 starters to complete the course.
