Pen Duick III
This unconventional French schooner is making her first visit to Australia and brings with her the formidable reputation of having won the RORC 1967 Class I Championships with the record score of 100%. In achieving this she won the Morgan Cup, Channel Race, Gotland (Sweden) Race, Plymouth-La Rochelle, La Rochelle-Benodet Race and Fastnet Race. She is of aluminium construction and will be a strong contender for both line honours and a win on handicap.
