Laurelle

 

This is the first production built Farr 42 by Austral Yachts and is a design tailored to the IRC rating. The crew consists of regulars plus the builder, sailmaker and several experienced Rolex Sydney Hobart sailors. With previous boats, skipper Ray Borrett has enjoyed divisional wins in Melbourne based ocean races, including a 4th in the Melbourne to Hobart, and in his first race with Laurelle, the Melbourne to Stanley qualifying race, the boat finished 1st on PHS.
