Profile

Beautifully maintained vintage sleep, Struen Marie contested her first Sydney Hobart in 1951, which she won under the ownership of Tom Williamson. She also competed in the 1951 Montague Island Race, and 1963 and 1964 Sydney Hobart races, finishing 26th and 12th. Brian and Lynette Wherry purchased her five years ago, and although mainly used for cruising she recently won the CYCA Lion Island - Botany Bay Race in her class.
