Poitrel

 

A steel sloop designed by Dick Taylor this yacht is making her fouth Hobart trip.  "Poitrel" won the 1967 Jervis Bay race, surprising many more favoured boats and has kept up the good work by obtaining placings in Division 2 in three other races this season.  Her experienced owner and crew will give an excellent account of themselves.
