Triton

 

Triton is the former Vanguard, a Lyons 60. Although built in 2004, it has not been engaged in any serious offshore racing since 2005. It has required an extensive program to make it offshore ready since August when it was bought by David Gotze and Michael Cranitch. This is its maiden Hobart.
