Profile

72-year-old Don Mickleborough will be taking his team of ageing cronies to Hobart for the 11th time. Since a major refit three years ago Don has had phenomenal success with this veteran boat. The highlight was his 3rd overall on IMS in last year's race, she also won her Division, which followed her 30 year Veteran Division in the year before. This 'roast and 7 vegetables per night' crew washed down with a nice drop of red, are dangerous both on the race course and in port.
