Yet another of the remarkable S&S 34s which continue to do well in long ocean racing. Marara has raced five times to Hobart and three times won division trophies. She was among the few finishers in the 1984 race. Marara continues to win races, this year taking out the Janzoon Trophy. For owner skipper Bill Ratcliff this will be his 27th Hobart while watch captain Barry Simpson from Hobart will be sailing his 19th.
