This well-performed yacht has been chartered by the Spangle Luscious Syndicate, organised in the UK by Mark Beeson, who is bringing the bulk of the crew to Australia for a month's preparation and to contest the Australian One Ton series. As Canon Express, this yacht was a member of the winning UK team in last year’s NorTel Southern Cross Cup, finishing fourth in the Sydney to Hobart. Helmsman Jamie Wilmot stays with the boat, which was also a member of the winning 1988 Kenwood Cup team.
