Hailing from New Zealand, Fidelis took line honours in the '56 Sydney Hobart, and was 2nd on line in '67 by only two minutes. Took line honours in the '66 Auckland Suva, in a '67 Hobart - Auckland, the '68 Whangarei - Noumea, Auckland - Tonga in '79 and Tauranga to Port Vila in '80, Sydneysider Nigel Stoke has bought this yacht to race the other veteran yachts and this could well be the boat to beat.
