Tilting at Windmills

Tilting at Windmills is a timber yacht designed by Professor Peter Joubert and was built in 1994 by Norman Wright and Sons. She was launched in time for the anniversary 50th Hobart race where she finished 12^th in IMS Division E. Her best result in the Hobart was in 2003 when she finished second overall in IMS for second in division, and seventh overall under IRC. 

Last entering the Rolex Sydney Hobart in 2005, Tilting at Windmills finished 18^th overall under PHS. This time around, she will be in the capable hands of John Alexander. Her Victorian timber merchant owner, Thorry Gunnersen, has raced and cruised the yacht extensively in Australia, Europe and New Zealand.
