Profile
Another very well-known and raced yacht in its time, Mulberry last tackled the Sydney Hobart in 1988 and is one of the smaller yachts in the fleet. Bill Wright says he won the Bicentenary race in 1987, having finished on New Year's Day. His whole aim this year is to finish the race with no damage to people or vessel, and for him and the crew to have smiles on their faces. What more could you ask?
