Phantom of Brighton

 

This is "Phantom's" third Hobart Race, in neither of the previous has she shown her true form.  She has a Queenscliff-Sydney race win to her credit and after unfortunately being dismasted early in 1969, she has now been re-rigged with an alloy spar which will without doubt improve her performance.
