A classic timber ocean racing yacht of the late 1960s with a varnished mahogany hull, Koomooloo won the 1968 Sydney Hobart on corrected time, and twice represented Australia at the Admiral’s Cup. She has been restored to her best under her new Queensland owner and has recently returned to racing. Built in 1968, she is the oldest boat in the fleet and one of five Queensland entries.
