Highly Sprung

 

Originally built in 2005, this Farr design TP52 has undergone major modifications over the years to keep up with the new 52 ft designs.  Under previous owners, the yacht was the highest placed TP52 in the 2012 Rolex Sydney Hobart, finishing 5th overall, as Calm.  Now under new owner Mark Spring, the yacht regularly competes in the inshore TP52 circuit and offshore racing.
