Janzoon

 

Together with her sister ship "Lass O'Luss" this Robert Clark designed sloop dominated C.Y.C ocean racing in the 1950's.  Her name appears on most trophies at the Club though the Hobart Race escaped her in six attempts, a third in 1955 and fourth in 1956.  After eight years in Pittwater she has recently made her appearance offshore again.
