The Yachts

Hollywood Boulevard

Hollywood Boulevard

 

One of the more colourful yachts and owners in long-time competitor Ray ‘Hollywood’ Roberts. Strong chance for handicap honours if weather suits the medium-sized boats. Down at 13th overall last year but as Living Doll she finished runner-up in overall honours to Loki in the 2011 RSHYR. Hard-running conditions will suit this yacht which suffered the misfortune of almost sinking on the return trip from Hobart last year when she damaged her rudder. Has undergone a significant rebuild since the collision with a sunfish east of Flinders Island.
