Temeraire

 

This is a steel built ketch designed by E B Slater of Victoria and built in 1961 by Parsons and White, the latter being her owner.  She has done well in Victorian ocean races with a 1st, a 2nd and a 3rd in the Queenscliff, Waratah Bay and Flinders Island Races, and a 2nd and a 3rd in the Queenscliff-Devonport Races.  She has a particularly favourable rating and will revel in moderate to fresh reaching conditions.
