Profile

In a remarkable effort, this 35 footer, Bruce Taylor's former Chutzpah, became the smallest yacht in the decade to be the overall IMS winner of last year's tough Hobart race. AFR Midnight Rambler is only the second yacht in history to win the Sydney to Hobart and then the Gosford to Lord Howe Island race double.
