Ragamuffin

Ragamuffin

 

This IMS champion has consistently delivered a top handicap placing, thanks to the experience of her skipper Syd Fischer, the Overall winner in 1992.  Syd and his crew are race-tuned following a 3rd on handicap in the Sydney Mooloolaba Yacht Race and a win in the Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race earlier this year.  She has since been optimised with a sweptback spreader rig making her a major chance in the overall handicap honours.  She won the Bluewater Pointscore division (IMS) of the recent Cabbage Tree Island Race.
