Profile

It has been five years since this Tassie yacht has made her way to Sydney for the Boxing Day start of the Telstra Sydney to Hobart race. During that time, she has raced extensively on home waters and has recorded some good results, including a 1st on IMS in the 1998 Maria Island race and 3rd on handicap in last year's Melbourne Geelong series. Well-known Hobart car dealer and owner Wayne Banks-Smith will be joined by another well-known Tasmanian in Richard Latham.
